Yes, but you hurt yourself if you abort too often. When you do that, you lose the ability to abort and you can only resign.
No Picture, No Play

When you abort too many games you will lose the ability to abort games.
There are people with pictures that will do the same thing you mentioned above.
The ratio of genuine players here without profile picture far outweighs smurf accounts and chess.com does their best to kick out cheaters from the site.
I may incorporate the title into my playing style from now on. If there profile does not have a picture, i abort, because theres a higher chance i will lose to that player. Yes, i should face everyone, but theres an obvious bias which can only be explained by the fact people without pictures are not interested in their account, the bias shows that these people make a quick profile to either smurf or cheat, due to the lack of interest in adding a picture.
im obviously not saying everyone without a picture falls into these 2 categories, but a pattern is there.
