Short answer is no, JSON-LD algorithm will not dereference these IRI.
It is important to understand that the URL (or list of URLs) given to @context
plays a very different role from the IRIs used in most other places in JSON-LD (including the values of your order
property):
@pchampin thank you for your quick response. just to clarify, is it okay practice to opt for referencing nodes by their identifier rather than including the node objects themselves?

It's more than okay. It is the core principle of linked data :-)
Hi, I have a node object with a property whose value is a list of node identifiers. Similarly to how contexts can be referenced using a URL, these children nodes are referenced from the main node object by its identifier, and are not connected by the child node object itself. I have not been able to find an example of this. Is this at all possible?
Example:
where this doc would flatten out to include, in the resulting graph, the node object defined in
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ReproNim/schema-standardization/master/activities/MedicalHistory-LORIS/items/medicalhistory_1
.In other words, how would I dereference a node's identifier without directly adding its object into the main jsonld doc?
