Yes, other than the draws that non-residents are not allowed to apply in.

I have two non-resident brothers and had to figure all this out before taking them hunting this year for the first time.
Non-residents are only allowed to hunt antlered animals of each species with regard to special draw only licenses. General whitetail can be either sex during the 'either sex' period of the season which varies from WMU to WMU.
I had to do a "group draw" with the one brother for antlered moose and mule deer (we're in a General Elk WMU). As per procedure, in a group draw, the lowest priority is the one they base the draw on. I was a 1 when I started drawing with my brother two years ago so we're now 2 and 3 (he's two) so our draw, when I apply for it, will be based on his priority, not mine.
You will likely now have to do a group draw with a resident in order to get special draw license. As per my example, priorities matter. Call albertarelm and confirm about the draws and priorities ASAP so you don't make any mistakes come June of 2021.
