Sure. They might feel that way, but it's still an incorrect use of the word. It would mean it applies to god as much as anyone else. And it wouldn't be in any way dependent on him.
Of course, if you take a snapshot of his "character" at a certain moment, you can "objectively" base it on that. But I can just as easily use the moral code "kill everyone". That's objective. The code stays the same, regardless of your opinion of it. In this respect, "objective" just becomes "arbitrary and unchanging".
