An economy(country) can consume outside of its PPF if its starts to trade with Another Country that also produces all goods.

Since these countries may have different comparative advantages in production, they will focus on producing more of one good and export the excess, i.e that which is not consumed or wanted in the own country. The terms of trade will then determine how much of the other good the country can import for the price of the exported good but you will then end up in a situation where you consume more goods than an economy can produce itself.
