Can you use a fictitious call? Sure, just like with any other mode. Would it be easier to catch than some one doing so on voice modes? The quick-n-dirty answer is yes, with a few qualification. Is that sort of thing done? I'm sure it is, but not as much as you might think. Just too easy to trace. Most APRS programs have an 'ignore' feature, you don't have to see everyone. That feature also usually has a 'flip-side' to it, you can track particular stations. See where that could influence things?
