Close your eyes and imagine an apple in front of your face. Can you
see it? In detail, in color? Can you rotate it on any axis and see it
moving? Can you look down on it from the top and see which way the
stem points?

Or so they say.
There's no way to know what goes on in someone else's head.

There are tests for visualization skill. The US Marine Corps wants
people with good vizualization and dynamics, so they have one test
that shows flat pieces of cardboard with printed patterns, and a bunch
of boxes, one of which can be folded up from the cardboard. Fun. I
aced that one but didn't want to be a Marine.
