Process what "request" for deployment?
If the system doesn't have a client agent, there's no way to force the system to do anything automatically. Creating a resource enables known computer support for OSD when you manually PXE boot or boot a system from boot media. You can't [magically] force an unmanaged system to do something.
The ImportMachineEntry method already creates/uses a DDR as that's the only [supported] way to create a resource in ConfigMgr. As noted, this doesn't make the target system "managed" though. It simply makes it "known" to the site by MAC Address and/or SMBIOS GUID which enables booting to WinPE using PXE or boot media as noted.
