The short answer is no. PR is a US territory, residents of PR have US passports. Whether you have decided to be a resident of PR or not has implications. If all of your income comes from PR sources and you are a resident then you do file a PR income tax return and you do not file a US (federal) tax return. If you are a resident and some of your income comes from the US them more than likely you'll have to file both PR and US tax returns. I think it gets complicated. I've been pondering this myself because eventually I will be inheriting money from someone who resides in NJ and I wonder how that is handled if I am a resident of PR.
Obtaining residency in PR is relatively easy. The first thing is you must reside there 6 months and 1 day that is the start. Are You a Bona Fide Resident of Puerto Rico. http://www.amgprlaw.com

Nothing much. I just changed my driver licence and got a voting card. PR is still USA, you need no "permission" to move here or come and go.
Of course all the above answers only apply to US citizens,
If you're not you'll have to become a lawful permanent resident (get a "green card"),
