Yes, I have loaned people wheels after their tires blew up. But this was before discs were common so there was no compatibility issue. I've also made broken shifters work in the middle of a race. Stuff happens in real life when you don't have a pit crew.
So that's a "no" - you haven't loaned anyone a tire so that they could finish a ride.

Again, I'm no fan of hookless rims. But this claim about loaning tires is a hoot.
