I think I understand what you mean.
Technically I believe you could do something like this if you modified enough of it. Obviously I'm not a lawyer and this isn't legal advice. However, if you are simply using the fundamental syntax and structure of the html, css, js, other libraries/frameworks, etc... That should be okay.
But, for all the extra hassle of modifying it down to the bare bones, removing comments and the concern of potentially getting into legal trouble. I think it's best to just simply buy the theme each time.
Work it into your pricing. I mean, an extra $15 or so from your client likely shouldn't be an issue.
I will say though, it likely is completely okay to have a spare copy of the theme to look over. This way you can look at how they built certain elements and maybe learn some new things that you can apply to other projects. Maybe they made an awesome navbar without using bootstrap and you wanna see how they did it. And by looking at how they did it and learning to make that yourself; you can now apply that kind of navbar in a completely different project.
