The notification on USCIS says (please check the highlighted line in bold)

 

Validity of Employment Authorization

You will not be authorized to work until USCIS approves your Form I-765. Once your employment authorization is approved, the expiration date on your EAD should be the same date as the expiration date on your most recent Form I-94 indicating your H-4 nonimmigrant status. You are only authorized to work through the expiration date on your EAD. If you still will be eligible for work authorization after that date, you should file for a renewal EAD by submitting another Form I-765. You cannot file for a renewal EAD more than 180 days before your original EAD expires.

Does this highlighted line in bold mean that one can work on H4 EAD renewal receipt number post current EAD expiry date? Please confirm.
