They can't. However, you could define another "parking space" just behind each gate parking space, then tell the aircraft to taxi to that parking space, before telling them to taxi to the runway. It won't look right in Tower View, but it'll look right on the scope.

I simulated apron taxi lanes in the airport file by creating a taxiway along the route behind gates. This will require you to create quite a few points along the taxiway but it worked great for me.

Heres my fix

 

Add more points along the taxi way thet the plane will push back to.

 

Take this example

 

Plane on stand 55 with V taxiway behind it

 

when you issue taxi V as a command it will taxi to the nearest waypoint it sees on the V taxiway. So the answer would be to add a waypoint behind each stand on that taxiway.

 

Job done
