I sent outpost ship with high stealth to the system which I didn't control (it is the system which is capital of AI but it has an empty planet). It is possible to click "place outpost" but in the next turn nothing happens. I think it's a bug (but maybe there's some rule which forbids this action).

Outpost issue

Re: Outpost issue
You can't colonize (of which outposting is one type) if there is an armed enemy in the system, regardless of how stealthy your colonizer/outposter may be.
We probably should, though, get around to making some sort of SitRep warning when an colonizing/outposting attempt fails, the current silent fail does lead to a fair bit of confusion.
And we do already have an Issue open for it... https://github.com/freeorion/freeorion/issues/1456
