Do any of the bios features of this motherboard allow you to upgrade the BIOS without CPU?

It has these two features ASUS EZ Flash 3 and CrashFree BIOS 3

EZ Flash instructions say you can flash the bios with a USB stick or using the internet, but the instructions don't say whether a CPU and/or RAM is required to be present.
 
No because it doesn't have the USB BIOS Flashback port with Flashback button next to it on the rear I/O panel.
