1. No, citizenship requires physical presence.
2. You better ensure that the company meets the Immigration definition of a Canadian company, before you put your PR status in jeopardy Start at page 16 http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/enf/enf23-eng.pdf for the information that you will require to prove it is a Canadian company.
