No, once you have been born into a country you remain a citizen of that country even if you immigrate. Certain rights of a US citizen can be suspended or revoked if that person has been convicted of a criminal felony.

The law prohibits the taking of your citizenship against your will, but there are certain actions a citizen can take which are classed to be a free-will decision that constitutes renunciation of their citizenship. Which means if you commit these such acts you are willfully aggreeing to the loss of your citizenship.

The ways to lose your natural born US citizenship are detailed in 8 USC 1481:

1.Becoming naturalized in Another Country.

2.Swearing an oath of allegiance to another country.

3.Serving in the armed forces of a nation at war with the U.S., or if you are an officer in that force.

4.Working for the government of another nation if doing so requires that you become naturalized or that you swear an oath of allegiance to that country.

6.Being convicted of committing treason.
