What we do know is that Kion is apparently breaking tradition by having non-lions in his guard. And seeing that female lions don't tend to swap prides, it is likely that the Pride Lands are Nala's birth pride, so it is likely that her father was in the pride before that.
However, more likely is that Sarafina was the original Pride Lander, and Nala's father was "just some other lion" as Disney put it, an no other thought was given to who he might be, or what his role was. I do think that it was far more likely for Nala's father to be someone simply passing through rather than being a member of the pride. While Mufasa might be able to tolerate that (or perhaps his and Scar's father, the previous king), I doubt that Scar would - and since Scar was family, I am sure that if he caused enough trouble about another male lion being around, he would get the overruling "vote" and Nala's father would be forced to leave just so that he won't cause any tension, regardless if he was the source of it or not. I won't take it beyond Scar to make stuff up to get rid of a non-Pride Lander, just to keep the number of those in front of him in line, or just threats to being rivals for the throne, down.
