No, it doesn't select the larvae by dragging, it just selects them instantly from the other side of the map. I'd guess it either has a hotkey for the hatcheries and press it and the larvae key instantly without it showing in the replay, or it has a cheat ability to instantly select larvae.

Its API allows it to select units arbitrarily from anywhere (regardless of camera). Camera vision only controls the specificity of data it sees for on-screen units.
