no it cannot. the only thing that would happen is your engine would not get new oxygen into it's cylinders, because the muffler wasn't breathing well enough, and your engine would just shut off.

What can cause a head gasket to blow will not having the oil cap on or antifreeze in the radiator cause it?
Lots of things can cause a head gasket to fail, but the usual cause is engine overheating. Things like warped or cracked heads, incorrectly installed gaskets or heads, incorrectly torqued head bolts, torquing head bolts in the wrong sequence, are also common culprits. Not having the oil filler cap installed, while not a good idea, shouldn't result in head gasket failure. No antifreeze in the radiator (either just water filled or empty, not sure which your question meant), or not having the radiator cap installed, could definitely cause engine overheating, and therefore, a blown head gasket.
