No, a person has to be a citizen of the country in order to receive a passport. They can grant citizenship, then issue a passport if they want to.
Problem is, being a citizen of a country does not always mean renouncing the citizenship of another country, so if the person returns to their former country, they can still be subject to laws placed on a citizen. For example, i think it is Chile that was forcing Chileans holding foreign passports to still serve in the military even though they were a citizen and resided in another country, but were just visiting relatives. The US also makes a tax claim on citizens that do not reside in the US, and are even a citizen of another country when working outside the US.
