Yes, you can receive your pay in the US even if you are working in China.
FYI - regardless of where you receive your pay, you will be taxed in the US (assuming you are a US citizen) as well as taxed in China (assuming you earn the money in China.)
There are tax exclusions and credits available to you to help you avoid the double tax effect. You can read about them here - http://gemms.us/tax-center/tools
