You can, but only through a very intrusive bone marrow analysis. It's mentioned (in either the movie or the novel) that they were hours into an autopsy before they realized it was a replicant.
VK is the alternative when you don't want to subject a suspect to dangerous and intrusive surgery.

- the_af 4y agoAh, true... for the sequel. To be honest I was referring to the original Blade Runner and PKD's novel. I didn't like the sequel much (and I didn't think it needed to be made to begin with). Though I suppose it applies even to the sequel; unless the serial shows up in x-rays you probably need to do surgery to find out!
