The MR doesn't have to have formal education regarding QMS or ISO 9001, the standard doesn't prescribe qualifications for the MR. New version of the standard doesn't even requires MR as a role in the QMS.

2. Is is possible that the Document Controller become QMR or appointed as QMR?
Yes, but considering the usual duties of the MR, maybe it is better to have somebody from the production or some other core process in the company. On the other hand, Document Controller has experience with administrations so his or her contribution to the QMS can be valuable.
