I think I understand your question and the answer is yes.

Send iTunes Gifts via email - http://support.apple.com/HT201783 - "Learn how to send iTunes Gifts in the iTunes Store, iBooks Store, and App Store. In the iTunes Store, you can gift a dollar amount or books, audiobooks, music, movies, TV shows, or apps from your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, Mac, or PC."

I haven't received an emailed gift. Redeem App Store & iTunes Gift Cards, Apple Music Gift Cards, and content codes - Apple Support says:

" If you received your App Store & iTunes Gift Card or Apple Music Gift Card through email, click Redeem Now in the email to redeem the credit."

It isn't clear to me from that if you get a code you can actually type in, not like with a physical gift card.

If there are any problems you can still have the gift re-sent to their actual email address (information linked off the first link I provided earlier).

Thanks. I'm purchasing a gift certificate and would like it emailed to me so that I can print the receipt with code and give it as a Xmas gift. The recepient does have an Itunes account but it's associated with a different email address than the one I'd like the purchase info sent to.
