No, not based solely on rumor or hearsay. However, if they look into the information contained in the rumor to determine the truthfulness of it, it is possible that their investigation might disclose sufficient probable cause to arrest you for an offense.

Quite often these "rumors" turn out to be what is known as "leads."

It depends on what you mean by rumors, but they can say you're suspected of a committing a crime even though you have not been arrested
