No. You need to live in the US during the entire process (but it is acceptable to take short trips abroad), unless that job is for a US corporation or government agency and you can get an approved N-470. Taking that job is risking not only denial of this citizenship application, but also may make you ineligible for the next 4 or 5 years.

Added to the risk of abandoning the Green Card as well...
