Pretty much all of the Western idea of Santa comes from the poem "The Night Before Christmas". It is a common misconception that Coca-Cola changed the colour of his clothing, but their Christmas advertising featuring Santa is largely responsible for spreading the image portrayed in the poem.

Santa Claus is traditionally represented in a red cloak with white fur trimmings, a reference to St Nicholas, who reputably performed his charitable acts dressed in his red bishop's robes.Conventionally, Santa Claus is portrayed as a kindly, round-bellied, merry, bespectacled white man in a red coat trimmed with white fur (perhaps remotely derived from the episcopal vestments of the original Bishop Nicholas), with a long white beard and green or white gloves.

Aaaah,you mean Ninja Santa.
He used stealthy techniques to sneak into peoples houses,leave presents and then slit their throats while they slept.
He didnt catch on though so they went with the fat, cuddly ,beardy ,jolly man we all love.

He was about ninety pounds lighter then. One Christmas, as he was trying to deliver toys in Japan, he encountered a group of silent assassin/toymakers. They sensed his potential as toy giving-killing machine, gave him a skin-tight black outfit, a katana sword and other weapons and specialized training.
He became...(wait for it...)
NINJA CLAUS
(or Crouching Tiger, Hidden Elf...)

The anagram of Santa is "Satan".
Therefore it is possible.
