Can CDN Identify Whether a User Is on a Desktop or Mobile Device?

No.

If a CDN point of presence (PoP) caches the content for mobile devices, when a user accesses that content, the CDN PoP directly serves the content. If a CDN PoP caches the content for desktop devices, when a user accesses that content, the CDN PoP also directly serves the content. Therefore, the content for mobile devices and that for desktop devices need to be distinguished on the origin server.
