Yes, because point_data represents attributes associated with the points.  The
scalars/vectors/tensors are therefore independent of the points.  You can of
course achieve this by using the scalars to modify the points using a warp
filter.  For example you could setup the points to be planar on the x-y plane
and set the scalar values but instead you'd have to do:

src = mlab.pipeline.add_dataset(poly_data)
surf = mlab.pipeline.surface(mlab.pipeline.warp_scalar(src))

Then your approach may work.
