It's possible, but not very likely.

The Prime Minister is the head of the UK Government and is appointed by the Queen. By convention, the Queen first invites the leader of the largest political party elected to the House of Commons, but he needs to be able to command a majority in the House.

It would be possible for a Norwegian national (as an EU citizen) living in the UK to stand and be elected to parliament. His party could choose him as their leader and find themselves with a majority in parliament. Whether British voters would elect a a Norwegian or a party appoint one as leader is another matter.

It's more likely that a Norwegian could become the British Monarch. King Harald of Norway is 65th in line to the British throne and followed by various members of his family. So if the King decides he is too busy, one of his children might take on the job.
