I would think not. The instructions are to cite works from an author that has no works. They may be confused and ask questions, but they can't forge ahead and execute the direction given because it's impossible. Even if you were exposed to that confusion, I would think you'd work the paper best you can while awaiting an answer as to what to do about that seemingly impossible requirement.
