No. The probate judge declares who the executor is. If the will specifies an individual, and that person is both compent and accepts the job, then the judge will honor what the will says.

When a will is made, an executor is named. The information is in the will. I don't see how ANYONE can just name themselves as Executor.

I guess a person can do anything they want but unless they are specificly stated in the will
remember alot of wills don't have to go to probate and the executor is named in the will.
so the answer can be maybe depending on the size of the estate, if it is going into probate
and of course what nation it is in, or if the US what state.

usually the executor of an estate is named prior to death by the deceased, in the case this has not happened the courts will appoint one.
