No. If it's a copy, then it falls under copyright regardless of how the copy is made. The question wasn't about copying, though.

Be aware that copyright only covers the creative elements; ie things that other people would do differently. It also doesn't cover ideas, methods, and the like. It also doesn't cover very short or obvious creations. So, copyright on code comes from UI design, comments, names, even the ordering of lines, functions, splitting the code into files, using shorthand or not, and so on. Snippets and even short functions are typically not copyrightable. If you have some short program that anyone would write that way, then that's not copyrightable, beyond comments and maybe names.
