In this situation, could a player just throw the ball directly overhead as high as they could, without it crossing the out-of-bounds threshold? Surely it would stay up for a good three seconds at least.

Sure but if you midjudge how much hang time you can get, the opponent can recover (there was a famous play like 20 years ago where this happened and the opponents got a buzzer-beater 3 out of it)
