It must work.  If it doesn't, you need to investigate that and find out
why.  GNU make uses the exact same methods for invoking $(shell ...) as
for running command scripts, so if one works ...

  sb> I have found "wildcard" :
  sb> FILES = $(wildcard *.c)

The only way is by using $(shell ...).  There is no capability
for this built into GNU make.
