does the wonder merchant require you to be physically there to access it?

I was kind of wondering if you need to physically be there to access the wonder merchant. I mean like beating the boss and stuff. For example, if the wonder merchant appears and people in the party of course buy an item and leave party, is it possible to recruit new people to walk into the dungeon and access the merchant even if they weren't part of the initial run? I'm also wondering this for clan runs? What if you run awk necro in zaiwei and get the cat ear merchant. Can you just add and kick clan mates in for just the merchant? Will the merchant be visible for them? Or maybe the wonder merchant will just deny you? I know it probably doesn't work this way though. :/

No and yes the merchant will still be visible but won't be accessible.
