Limits of Partial Charges in Dipoles

In my book it is written "Ends of dipole possesses partial charges. Partial charges are always less than the unit electronic charge (1.6×10−19 C)".
Suppose in a double bond(two electron is shared by each atom) or triple bond(three electrons are shared by each atom), can the electronegative atom pull the shared electron cloud to the extent that the charges at the end of the dipole exceed 1.6×10−19 C.why is that not possible? Is it because the anions are not electronegative to that extent, hence they cannot pull the electron cloud to the extent that the charges at the end of the dipole exceed 1.6×10−19 C?
