Yes. One of the stipulations with the rule that forbids goalkeepers from handling the ball after it has been passed to him/her by a teammate is that it must have been a deliberate pass by the foot. It could be headed, shouldered, chested, etc. as long as the pass was not deliberately made by the foot (or hand).

What is the pass back rule in soccer?

The so-called "Back Pass" rule means that the goalkeeper cannot handle the ball, even within his own penalty area, if it was deliberately kicked to him by a teammate.

Note that a penalty kick can never be awarded for a goalkeeper's handling.
