Your question is somewhat vague. If you are underwater, you pass out because of lack of oxygen and your organs begin to die, especially the brain. It is miraculous when someone has been underwater without oxygen for more than even a few minutes and survives without brain damage.

If you are talking about holding your breath, while it is difficult to hold one's breath until they pass out it is not impossible; this is your body shutting down all nonessential systems in a last ditch effort to get you breathing again---while your will may be strong enough to get you to pass out, once you are unconscious you will breathe unless your airway is blocked.
