No, it requires possession.
Just like how you can't kick the puck and have it deflect off the opposition and in.
They blew the call as he didn't highstick the puck, but you can't review if the puck was highsticked to gain possession. The officials said he knocked the puck down with a highstick, which is a dead play automatically.
