It's not possible. If you change the native files, you have to rebuild your app and distribute a new version

The way codepush works is deeply related to react-native's workings

A react native app is basically a runtime for your Javascript code. It's an app that interprets your JS bundle. The bundle is usually shipped with the runtime. The way codepush works is, instead of trying to run a local bundle, your app now tries to download the new JS bundle from a codepush server.

But keep in mind that it only downloads a fresh JS bundle. The native files are already compiled. If you change your native files, you need to recompile them, and codepush doesn't do that for you.
