No, an executed certificate should never be sent or given to another party, trusting them to attach it to the correct document. If it were fraudulently or mistakenly attached to another document, the notary would be in an indefensible position.

A Notary must never give or mail a signed and sealed notarial certificate to another person and trust that person to attach it to a particular document. This would be an all but indefensible action in a civil court of law should the certificate be fraudulently or mistakenly attached to another document.
