Since text is outlines, I am not sure what you would gain. When you import the text into Illustrator and switch to Outline View you will see the the text is a filled outline. Just change the fill and or outline.

Here's a tip. Create two versions of the text. Apply an outline to the text, clone the text and remove the outline. This way the integrity of the text is not compromised by the outline.
