No, it is not reasonable or logical for a firm to grow indefinitely at a rate higher than its required return. Such a theoretical stock would become so large that it would ultimately go beyond the whole economy. However for a very short period of time, the rate could possibly be higher than the required return especially when the firm is performing excellently.
