The employer can always ask the question, the issue is with what you need to do in response and the consequences of your decision. If the leave is unprotected, then the employer can take an adverse action against you for not returning early. However, if the leave is protected (by either FMLA or WC), then it is illegal for the employer to take an adverse action against you for not returning early.
