Yes. But this would not protect the person who goes beyond the limits in the US Constitution from prosecution in Federal Court.
What the states may not do is impose more restrictive limits on civil liberties or civil rights than those in the US Constitution.
The Constitution really grants us zero liberties or rights. It acknowledges that we are born with certain rights and that the Government is not supposed to limit or take away from those rights. The Constitution grants the Government certain limited rights over us to make a civil and useful society. Other then those limitations we allow the Government to have under the constitution, we are free to do what we wish. The Constitution gives our Government certain (very limited) rights and liberties. We have chosen to allow our Government to have these rights to allow for a working society.
The US Bill of Rights was created to protect U.S. citizen's individual liberties.

In the United States, the US Constitution recognizes the basic human rights granted to its people by God. The Constitution does not "give" its people rights. The US Constitution documents a number of things, such as the way the Federal government operates. Under the US Constitution, the rights already alluded to are written in the part of the Constitution called the Bill of Rights. These rights the Constitution guarantees include important issues such as free speech, freedom of the press and freedom to practice one's religion. The Federal Constitution lays out the ways Federal officials are elected and appointed. When it was ratified in 1793, it was the most progressive document defining a democratic nation that had ever existed.
Civil liberties were added, in the form of the Bill of Rights.
They can be found in the Bill of Rights, specifically. The Bill of Rights is part of the Constitution, but it is the Bill of Rights where civil liberties are addressed.
Civil Rights or Liberties.

The documents that include personal liberties are the American bill of rights, the constitution, and the declaration of independence.
To protect our individual liberties/rights!! That was the only way antifederalists would approve of the Constitution! Hope I helped! :)

One Enlightenment idea that is included in the constitution is basic liberties such as voting rights and Bill of Rights. Another one is the separation of powers such as the Montesquieu.
