That depends on far in arrears you are and where you live. In the United States, if you owe an amount of $2500 or more, federal law mandates that you are not eligible to get a passport. Child support agencies in all 50 states pass along the names and social security numbers of those who reach that figure to the State Department who in turn, cross checks before a passport is issued.
The only way you can get a passport under those circumstances is to pay back all past due support and sign a binding agreement with the child support agency in your state of residence to keep all future payments current. In rare cases, the child support agency may request that your name be removed from the list provided to the State Department before the entire amount in arrears is paid off if there are unusual extenuating circumstances, but that is one in a million.
