I don't know about other countries, but just answering regarding the U.S. President: No, he cannot. The U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 1, Clause 7 states,

"The President shall, at stated Times, receive for his Services, a Compensation, which shall neither be encreased [sic] nor diminished during the Period for which he shall have been elected, and he shall not receive within that Period any other Emolument from the United States, or any of them."
