It would be possible, however, to set up a system with an extra
switched injector post_cat along with that spark plug at the tail pipe.
Why anyone would do it is totally beyond me but it is possible.

As far as I know, the classic flames-out-the-tailpipe
system kills the ignition spark for a second or two
letting raw fuel run out the exhaust. Then with a
tailpipe mounted sparkplug, you ignited the exiting
raw fuel.
As you can see, the above would totally crap up the
cats. Also, not good to let raw fuel wash over your
cylinder walls, cutting the layer of lubricating oil.
