You can store complex objects in Oracle in an XMLType or JSON format.
However it is probably the wrong tool for that job. If you are going to always access an object via a key, go for a dedicated Key-Value database product rather than an RDBMS. If you need to access objects via attributes, such as the person's name, then having that attribute buried in an object will be painful.

If the requirement is a single field in an Oracle database table, I'd suggest a CLOB (assuming it's only ascii and no binary data). When storing binary data, use a BLOB. BLOB= Binary Large OBject CLOB = Character Large OBject.
