Yes. Naturalising does not require renouncing your original nationality under its law. Several paths exist: by birthplace, descent, marriage, and naturalisation after around a decade of residence with ability in one of the two official languages.
ASEAN agreed in principle to admit it in 2022, and the country has been working through the roadmap toward becoming the eleventh member. This is a recent development, so check the current status when citing it formally.

Many middle-aged people speak Indonesian fluently from pre-1999 schooling, and English is common in international organisations — so the language barrier in Dili is lower than in many countries.
It is modelled on Norway's sovereign wealth fund, with a rule permitting only a limited annual withdrawal. The design is sound, but producing fields have declined, withdrawals have exceeded investment returns for several years, and the non-oil economy remains small. This is the country's central challenge.
Local facilities are limited. For specialist cases the standard approach is flying to Darwin in Australia, Bali or Singapore. Darwin is about an hour from Dili so this is workable, but international health insurance with medical evacuation is effectively mandatory.
Ranked 44th worldwide with 88 destinations — stronger than Vietnam's at 74th with 52, and ahead of Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines regionally.
