Certainly. And grubx64.efi in EFI/Boot of a live media behaves a bit 
differently from one in EFI/debian of a regular install since in the 
former case it relies on boot/grub residing on the same partition.

My point was to copy *files* to the pre-partitioned drive, not a whole 
image to the whole block device. I had a hope that the topic starter is 
aware of the recommended way to create a bootable USB stick using dd (or 
cp, etc.).

I usually copy files to existing single FAT partition on USB drives 
having msdos partition table (as they are shipped). It requires 
additional actions to setup syslinux for the sake of legacy boot, but it 
leaves enough space to put some additional files while the boot drive is 
prepared or during live session (requires remounting as rw). UEFI boot 
relies on files and their specific layouts, not on specific block addresses.
