Countries usually specify at what point you owe them money.
You can live in Tijuana, Mexico and commute to San Diego, California every day and won't owe anything to the IRS (as long as you are not a citizen or permanent resident). Now, getting your employer to pay you without withholding US taxes is another story, not many employers have experience with this. Not sure if you are supposed to file for a tax return at the end of the year but you still would owe the Mexican government taxes.
