No they can't. The App Store very deliberately prevents that (because that would let you use the App Store for all its benefits, while completely bypassing the 30% cut). The only codes you get are a limited number of promotional codes. Sure, if you have 5 customers, you could give them codes, but if you have 500 you can't. |

[MAS = Mac App Store, nMAS = non-Mac App Store]
The only (okay two) way that is impossible to do is: MAS ➜ MAS (and nMAS ➜ MAS)
but:
non-MAS ➜ non-MAS: via serial in the store MAS ➜ non-MAS: Receipt Validation (https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/General...)
the last one is rarely used by Developers… 1Password is one, that allows you to buy it in the MAS, and use at least their Beta-Builds.
That many developers use the MAS as an excuse, for not providing any upgrade paths at all… is a very silly solution to a problem that many Developers/Companys face (to make permanent profit) at the cost of customer satisfaction.
