Sure, but given that the player did avoid doing the work, the DM can take the opportunity to punish them for it.

I don't really like the idea of punishing players in game like that

We're all there to have fun and we all have different ideas of fun

So, have some fun with the other players at the expense of the player who refused to do even some basic work for the benefit of everybody else. It doesn't have to be massively cruel, just give them a nudge so that next time they do put in the required effort.
