Do Zombies, Ghosts, and Spirits have Ki?

I plan to make a match-up pitting a Dragon Ball character against a character that's undead, and I was wondering if zombies, ghosts, and/or spirits have Ki signatures. I know robots and cyborgs don't have Ki signatures (As proven by the existence of Android 16, 17, 18, 19, and Doctor Gero) but I don't recall the undead having Ki signatures in canon. I know a ghost appears in Dragon Ball Super (Dr. Mashirito) but I don't think he has a Ki signature, but then again I never saw the full episode. So as the title says...

Ki (気 "Ki", lit. "Air, Breath"), also known as chi/qi, Youki (妖気 Yōki, lit. "Bewitching energy")<a href="https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Ki#cite_note-1">[1]</a> or simply energy (エネルギー enerugī), is the LIFE FORCE energy used by Dragon Ball characters.

Undeads aren't alive, so by standard undeads don't have Life Force
 
In Dragon Ball Z dead characters can use their ki freely, the ki in Dragon Ball is the user's own soul according to anime and manga, but in the canon even spirits never used a ki and not even DBS manga that has zombies did they never use it.
