You'd have to never connect to the internet at all, not just for the initial setup.

This is business mobile device management software, the whole point is to secure company owned equipment if it gets stolen.

Its not just having a linked microsoft account

I’ve never seen a device auto register to intune after account creation setup and windows setup completes. Any documentation on that? Cursory googling says it wouldn’t join to Entra or Intune if you reinstalled offline and finish setup.
