No. They're not permitted to. The application is either flagged as being 'on time' or not.

The LSE email is just an automated message and likely goes out at scheduled times. So long as it was submitted to UCAS by the deadline then it will be flagged as an on time application, (there's usually a little leeway built in to the system as well, but that's by-the-by).
