This works fine for me:
md = QgsProviderRegistry.instance().providerMetadata('ogr')
conn = md.createConnection('/tmp/test_no_geometry.gpkg', {})
conn.createVectorTable('', 'my_table', QgsFields(),
QgsWkbTypes.NoGeometry, QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem(), True, {})
layer = QgsVectorLayer('/tmp/test_no_geometry.gpkg', 'pg', 'ogr')
layer.isValid() --> True
layer.geometryType() --> 4 == NullGeometry
