Default can a Universal M4-30 be hand cranked ?

Do you have a compression release lever and a "socket" on the front of the
crankshaft pulley where a hand crank would connect? If you have these
features the engine is probably designed for hand cranking.

The normal procedure is to get someone to hold down the compression release
while you get the engine spinning as fast as you can using the hand crank.
Let the compression release go and hopefully the engine starts. I imagine
you would have to experiment a bit with the throttle
setting.
