In theory, an Irish citizen could become Prime Minister of the UK, however it is very unlikely that someone who retained Irish citizenship would be elected leader of his/her party let alone win a general election.

The United Kingdom had one prime minister who was born in a colony of the UK, which later became part of Canada. This was Andrew Bonar Law, born in New Brunswick.
