Why not as long as you meet any citizenship requirements. See here http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/pr-expired-eligible-for-citizenship.501280/#post-6101992

PR card renewal and citizenship are two different things. Generally speraking, its usually in your interests to apply for citizenship as soon as you qualify for it (with a reasonable buffer of physical presence days), because you just don't know what will happen in the future.
