I don't think it works like that, anyway. The alert is not generated by the airtag, it is generated by the phone. And the phone knows what is around it because it scans for beacons on a periodic basis.

This is why if you walk past an airtag on the way to the store, and then walk by it again 20 minutes later, you won't get an anti-stalking alert.
