We have a huge project, if the project site is a greenfield, but it has neither trees nor plants; is it possible to install the "construction camps" outside the building footprint and once the project building is finished, restore and protect the area where the "construction camps" were installed and still complying with the credit?

No as the intention of the greenfield option is to protect the site area outside of the disturbance allowance from any disturbance. Despite not having trees, a greenfield site is defined as having never been graded or altered by human activity.
