Yes, this maximal decentralized usage where everybody has their own copy but can collaborate and pick and choose from other copies was a central idea in the creation of git. Ultimately it was made for Linux Kernel development and that is how that works over there.

You do not even need to use git specific protocols. One can simply import patch sets and mail them to each other.
