Is it mandatory for my luggage to go to the same destination with me?

My uncle will have a flight from Vietnam to Virginia, entering the US at LAX international airport. At this point, he’d have to do check-in and re-screen all his luggage through custom, then re-check his luggage before taking the connecting flight to Virginia. Since our family lives in Califonia, is it possible that he checks out the luggage at LAX, then continues his trip without his luggage to Virginia? Anyone has tried that before?
