The JR EAST PASS SPECIAL can be purchased in Japan at Narita Airport, Haneda Airport, Tokyo Station and major JR East stations. For further details, see the list (refer to link) of exchange and sales locations below.

Notes:

Present your passport to the pass office staff. You will receive a pass after confirmation of eligibility.
The pass is valid for three days of your choice during a 10-day period from the day it is purchased.
Only one JR EAST PASS SPECIAL can be purchased in Japan per stay in Japan.

Of course that is JR east

The JR Pass (for all rails) is only available outside Japan.
Sorry I didn't make myself clear. SQ421 and I were wondering if it was possible to purchase Suica & N'EX at a ticket counter (Midori no madoguchi) in NRT rather than at the JR East Travel Service Centers which close at 20:00 (T2) and 19:00 (T1).

The actual text on the website is:
"Suica & N'EX is available at the JR EAST Travel Service Centers located in Narita Airport Terminal 1 and 2. They are not available for purchase overseas. Please purchase your package after arriving at Narita Airport.

Note: Tickets are available for purchase at JR Ticket Offices (Midori-no-madoguchi) even when JR EAST Travel Service Centers are closed."
