Yes, a healthy person can quickly become strong enough to keep up with many group rides. But that doesn't mean they have the necessary skills to ride in a group. Strong riders without skills can be dangerous.

There's a not-so-nice term for people who are strong but are short on riding skills: Fast Freds.
