Yes it can, as long as it it is naturally rendered lard, leaf lard being the best. This lard is free of damaging preservatives, and hydrogenated oils that can seep into your skin.

But this lard you can ask for from any local meat shops or butcheries. You can apply to any dry areas and rub in. For hands and feet, rub in and then put on gloves or socks.

I also use it on my face at night after my normal routine, and I ske up with incredibly soft and moisturized skin.

It would not be recommended. Lard would not perform the hydrating or moisturizing abilities that dry skin needs and would probably clog pores. Check that the cleanser being used does not contain Sodium Laurel or Laureth Sulfate as these detergents further dry the skin.
