Of course you can. That's exactly what a revolution is. We replace their inexperience and manpower with overwhelming and smart fire power. We give them superb leadership and communications capabilities. Let the women and children work the logistics and send the men to the front. If they want a country, let them earn like everyone else. They need to support their war effort.

You'd be amazed how fast an army can grow out of a well trained small cadre. In the 18th century the french became the most powerful army in history, and they they did while mostly on the march. They were well led, united in purpose, and driven by conquest. Syrians could do the same with the right support.

Just know that the military training (and weapons) you give them may be used against your own people. It's why ISIS is driving around in Toyotas.

So. I'm less worried about a truly free and empowered people than I am a subjugated pack of perpetual victims.
