If there is no money in the seller's bank account, the direct debit has been cancelled, etc. etc then they can't. Unless you are referring to the fact that they will place the seller's Paypal account in negative balance, which means nothing when it comes to claiming money back - if the actual money is not there to take then they can't take it.
