I am not sure I understand your question. Do you mean can you say this phrase ("It's just some guy I work with.") to a female co-worker? Yes, you can. "some guy" just means you don't know him well. (but "guy" here can only be a male. If you want to refer to a female you would say "some woman")

it means he is not important to her. She works with him but she does not have any special connection. If you are just "some guy" you are just ordinary.

@jjkato i see, that's what i wanted to ask. some guy is only for a man, but not woman. so I need to say some woman. I appreciate your kindness!

@jjkato I have a real last question. How I should have asked you the question that you were not sure you understood?
- Inglês (EUA)
@WaterChannel You can ask as many questions as you need :-)
since you asked, "can I use 'some guy' to my female coworker?" the "to" in that question makes it sound like you are speaking to her.
It would be clearer if you said either, "to refer to my female coworker," or "for a female coworker?"
