This wouldn't be possible the way TS4 is designed. Neighboring lots aren't loaded and there's no processing happening except for on your current lot.
The reason you can see your neighbors coming and going in San Myshuno is because the hallway outside their door is loaded as part of your lot.
What is really any different? When you find a Sim walking outside in the neighborhood, you'll find that they are registered as having loaded onto that lot that was visited; if you saw your neighbor walking out in the neighborhood while your sim was at home and then switch to the neighbor, it would say they're at your previous sim's home, not their own. This would be the same if you switched between apartment neighbors outside their apartment.
As well, you still have to load into an apartment if you're visiting your apartment neighbor. Just the semblance that they go out of their home
lot would be enough to give me the impression there was something going on with your neighbors and their homes. It doesn't necessarily have to be them walking outside their home lot's doors because they can't seem to make that work (yet they can animate objects on other people's lots when we're not at their lot).
