Can you live in Canada and work in the US?

Details:
Currently in the US on H1B visa. I also have a Canadian PR.
Can I live in Canada and fly to client locations in the US (M-Th)? Is this possible if I transfer to Deloitte Canada? Will H1B have to be transferred. The reason for staying in Canada is because I have family there and also have US GC application in process. Any one doing this or know anything about the same? Thanks in advance.

I did it for 6 months. But I stayed on US firm payroll. The thing to note is that you cannot charge you time for Friday since you are outside US.

Yes I took the permission from partner for the Alt Travel to Canada. I dropped a note to the immigration team informing them about my travels. I was putting 0 hours for Friday and 10 hours for other days to make it 40 hours for the week. I was staying in a corporate apartment that was my local address in US.
