No spark condition, theoretical question

Regarding electronic ignition modules, is it possible that the timing could be so far out of range that no spark to a grounded spark plug would be seen?

I think not.

Which electronic ignition module are you using, Ultima, Crane, etc? Post a pic of the installation. Give more information please.

No, if that were the case, you'd still get spark but not when you needed it to ignite.
The pick-up, the wire, kill switch or the coil is bad.
