No its not possible. The same access rules that apply to application
code will apply to test code.

I believe one cause of VerifyError is that the class you are trying to
load is not in the current process's runtime classpath. In order for
your test app to be able to access the main app's classes at runtime,
you need to specify a instrumentation tag in your test app's
AndroidManifest.xml. Ensure the "targetPackage" is set to the main
application package.
See the samples/ApiDemos/tests/AndroidManifest.xml for an example. ie
<!--
This declares that this app uses the instrumentation test runner targeting
the package of com.example.android.apis. To run the tests use the command:
"adb shell am instrument -w
com.example.android.apis.tests/android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner"
-->
<instrumentation android:name="android.test.InstrumentationTestRunner"
android:targetPackage="com.example.android.apis"
android:label="Tests for Api Demos."/>
