No. The trustee only has the power granted in the document that created the trust. If the trust was drafted properly, there are provisions in the trust document for the removal of the trustee and for appointing a new trustee. If not, then the matter can be brought before a judge and the court can remove a trustee who is violating the terms of the trust.
A living trust for the benefit of a minor can be created but the minor cannot be the trustee. (One problem is that a minor cannot sign any legal documents.) The most common mistake made by non-professionals is not creating a proper distance between the trust property and the grantor, and the trust property and the beneficiary. If the proper legal distance isn't maintained the trust property will be exposed to creditors and other claims and the very purpose of the trust will be defeated. The trustee and the beneficiary should not be the same person. Trust errors can be very costly to correct. Trust law is extremely complex and a trust should always be drafted by a professional.
A trust set forth in a Last Will is called a testamentary trust.
