Everything is possible in Einstein zombie world. Consider this:

http://www.mpi-hd.mpg.de/ato/jb02_pdf/ions-10.pdf
"The core of special relativity (SR) as a theory of local spacetime is
Lorentz invariance, which is one of the most fundamental symmetries
that guide the construction of quantum eld theories. Additionally,
general relativity contains SR as a limiting case. Because of this
fundamental role there is much interest in experimental tests of SR.
One feature of SR that can be subjected to experimental test is time
dilation...."

Clever Einsteinians know (the 14 authors are by no means CLEVER
Einsteinians) that time dilation is a miracle that should be added to
Einstein's false light postulate if one wishes to camouflage the
falsehood. This means experiments that "confirm" special relativity
and time dilation in particular in fact confirm variable speed of
light (c'=c+v) and the absence of any time dilation, as accepted by
the emission theory of light:

John Norton: "Einstein regarded the Michelson-Morley experiment as
evidence for the principle of relativity, whereas later writers almost
universally use it as support for the light postulate of special
relativity......THE MICHELSON-MORLEY EXPERIMENT IS FULLY COMPATIBLE
WITH AN EMISSION THEORY OF LIGHT THAT CONTRADICTS THE LIGHT
POSTULATE."
