Yes, but nobody does that. When you become lawful permanent resident, you are entitled to have state issued ID or driver's license. The only chance you have to provide greencard is when you travel abroad and return to US. Greencard is the only evidence for proof that you are lawful permanent resident.
Lawful Permanent Residents who got married before obtaining a Green Card are not required to file an Immigrant Petition on behalf of their spouse (or any children born before becoming a Lawful Permanent Resident). A spouse and eligible children of a Lawful Permanent Resident in this category may apply for a Green Card without having an approved Immigrant Petition. This process is known as "accompanying" or "follow to join." Lawful Permanent Residents who have "adjusted" to Lawful Permanent Resident status in the U.S. must file Form I-824, Application for Action on an Approved Application or Petition in order to notify the appropriate consulate that their spouse will "accompany" or "follow to join." Lawful Permanent Residents who got married after obtaining a Green Card must file a Form I-130 Immigrant Petition on behalf of their spouse in order to sponsor them for Lawful Permanent Resident (Green Card) status.
If you are a conditional resident 90 days before it expires you need to adjust status and get the green card with 10 years validity. Permanent lawful resident can stay as long as they want provided they renew their green card which is valid only for 10 years.

The other case is where the Lawful permanent resident got married before obtaining the green Card.In such cases, there is no need of an approved immigrant petition. Lawful Permanent Residents who have adjusted their status to that of a Lawful Permanent Resident should file Form I-824 (Application for Action on an Approved Application or Petition).
