A 'tyrant' in ancient times meant a lord who was the sole holder of all power, executive and otherwise. He might - if he was so inclined - give his people all kind of rights, like the right to freely travel, to trade, to have and transfer their personal fortunes, to organize themselves in guilds etcetera.
Although the word 'tyrant' today is meant as a negative epithet, often meaning an oppressive ruler, out to suppress his people's freedoms and to fill his prisons with people who disagree with his rule, the original only indicated the scope of his powers - and an ancient tyrant could at the same time be a benevolent ruler.
No rights under a Dictatorship. He decides everything and the people have no say. If they protest they are arrested, sent to work camp, or killed. In Turkey within the last two or three months the elected president suspended civil rights and took control of the government. A week or so ago he came to visit Trump and his security men began to beat up peaceful protesters that were standing there. Washington police had to protect the protesters from them. Hitler did the same thing after he was elected to become dictator. He suspended civil rights and declared the government under his control. We know the rest of what happened there.
In short no. A dictator may suspend or deny what citizens of democracies regard as rights, at any time.
