No. A person (noun) cannot be used as an adjective. However, most nouns such as person, or a named person, can form a possessive, which functions similarly to adjectives to modify other nouns.
Occupational names (such as police, sailor) may be used as noun adjuncts with other nouns (e.g. police car, sailor hat).
