ofcourse they can.
even people who do not live in australia AT ALL nor have residency/citizenship can buy property (i.e.) asian investors in the eureka tower in melbourne.
Although i think there are some restrictions. You need to contact some sort of an agency, try a real estate agency. such as Love Real Estate or even L J Hooker.
Ring them and enquire within.
As far as the loans go, i don’t think you can achieve that unless you intend on becoming a resident or citizen.

you will find it is possible to buy a property here in Australia. You won’t be able to claim for the first home owners grant unless you have citizenship.
Mortgages will be hard to find if your security is not in Australia.

If you gonna buy it cash then no problem. If you are asking for a lon thru their bank then thats the problem
