Is it possible to work under the Labor Code of the Russian Federation from abroad?

I am a non-resident - I have NOT been in Russia for 1.5 years. I received an offer from a Russian company and employment will be according to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. Due to the situation with the virus, I do not want to leave Europe next month. Therefore, I think to send all the docks to a Russian company for employment. Live in Europe for about a month until this quarantine situation calms down (I hope it will calm down in a month), work remotely for the company.
Can anyone who works like this or worked, share your experience.

As I understand it, this is not a problem, but you just have to pay income tax as a non-resident.

Did you discuss everything with them? do they know that you are not a resident and instead of 13% you have to pay 30% taxes? And another question - who will pay them for you, have you also decided?
And also - in the country where you live, if you are in the status of a tax resident there, you may have questions about what kind of income these are, and where are the taxes from them.
If the company simply registers you in the same way as "local" ones, then if any problems arise, they will most likely say "we are not in the know, we do not know anything" and everything will be blamed on your head. Keep this in mind.

It's like that.
If you work under a regular employment contract, the employer pays all insurance and pension contributions (I can’t be sure of the difference due to non-residency, but this is not your problem), but you pay income.
Most likely you will receive payment with the amount already withheld, since the obligation to withhold is cleverly shifted to the shoulders of the employer.
