A Presidential Executive Order directs Federal employees / agencies only. It can't supersede law or an article of the Constitution.
So, if one wanted to, a President could sign an EO forbidding the IRS from collecting any personal income taxes, as an example.
Of course, the next office holder could simply overwrite that EO with another one.

Imagine if Trump did it. The very first EO Biden's handlers would have had him sign was one to reverse the policy, then (likely) go after all of the back taxes.
