No. It is not allowed. The employee can complain to the ITO who will take action on you.
Today firm 16 does not matter. What matters more is that the amount appears in 26AS of the employee. Then he does not need form 16
The only way you won't get it in 26as would be if it was not paid by the company to the government or if the TDS return are not filed. Both are serious offence that may involve prison terms
