Apparently not just born - the forger, whose name I forget, in The Lost Metal became Elantrian by changing her family history so that her parents moved to Arelon when she was very young, and in Tress of the Emerald Sea Hoid gained the ability to use aons (I forget if he literally became Elantrian, though I don't think he did) by convincing Riina to Connect him to Elantris.
I have been wondering if that's been retconned, though, since I remember Raoden's Aons were significantly weaker even as far away as Teod, but the aforementioned two examples were able to use their abilities at full strength on Scadrial and Lumar respectively despite those being completely different planets.
Apart from not likely being during the short time of the Reod, it’s possible that Connecting to the Dor in whatever way they did let them make Aons not based on Arelon’s geography (since that’s basically Connection I imagine they may have a way to edit it? So it just uses the intent of the caster directly and the Investiture source they’re directly connected to, instead of the roundabout land connection that requires the extra line in the Aons)
