The question, "can white play some anti g6 line" sounds like the beginning of a bad joke.  My answer is yeah, 1.d4 g6?! 2.e4!   I actually play 2.c4!? I agree, Black hasn't made a fatal mistake by playing 1....g6.  There may even be good reasons to play 1...g6 against a specific opponent but I think its greatest strength is in transpositions to mainline openings rather than any independent lines associated with (for example) d6, e6, Nd7, Ne7. When I face 1...g6, I don't get all excited and think I have an automatic advantage.  In fact many of the people who play 1...g6 are very dangerous players.   I usually go straight for the King's Indian lines and try to be especially aware of the unique tactical chances that Black creates with an accelerated fianchetto.  This usually means that I delay playing Nb-c3 until Black has developed his Ng8.  (I don't particularly like having to play against the Benoni variation: 1.d4 g6 2.c4 Bg7 3.Nc3 c5 4.d5 Bxc3.)

1. ...g6 is not unsound. Gotta jump on this bandwagon Cheesy If you play the Pirc or Modern, it makes sense to meet 1. d4 with d6 or g6 and avoid things like the Tromp. But them again, some players might be happy to invite a Tromp. The issue is that if White plays c4, then none of the options to the KID seem entirely satisfactory, but that's not a big issue for the vast majority of us.
Those who want to go by my perverse footsteps play such pawn structure with fuzzy atypical still strategic orientationsClowns to the left of me, jokers to the right, stuck in the middlegame with you

1.d4 g6 is not unsound but it gives more possibilities to both players. The advantage is to avoid 1.d4 Nf6 2.Bg5!? but white can play for exemple 2.e4 Bg7 3.f4 d6 4.c3!?

1...g6 is not unsound. Many Modern players use this move order to have the possibility to play Ne7 instead of Nf6. In some cases they let the other knight go to f6 via d7. This can save tempi when f5 is to be played. (Having a knight early on f6 requires it to be moved before the f-pawn can advance.)
Don't check me with no lightweight stuff.

I also plan to play like this after e4 g6 d4 Bg7 c4. Of course Nf6 is more flexible and a bit more forcing, but 1. ... g6 is not unsound, is it? 1...g6 is not unsound, but I don't see why you want to begin this way, giving White so much leeway, if you plan to put your knight so soon on f6 anyway.
