I haven't seen any government-wide policy statement on such matters, but provided no admissions have been made that would preclude granting of a security clearance, I don't think failing an NSA polygraph necessarily means disqualification from holding a security clearance with another agency. However, I think the fact of the failed polygraph will be made known to adjudicators for the other agency, and that may make granting of a security clearance less likely.
