The game suggests installing an allied oligarchy and putting the renegade king you are helping as the governor. And this makes sense. However, will that work without him becoming an interloper?

"A skeptic is one who prefers beliefs and conclusions that are reliable and valid to ones that are comforting or convenient, and therefore rigorously and openly applies the methods of science and reason to all empirical claims, especially their own. A skeptic provisionally proportions acceptance of any claim to valid logic and a fair and thorough assessment of available evidence, and studies the pitfalls of human reason and the mechanisms of deception so as to avoid being deceived by others or themselves. Skepticism values method over any particular conclusion." - Dr Steven Novella
The interloper trait as far as i know depends on the ethnicity trait on characters, so if the spartan king you have has the spartan ethnicity trait, then it shouldn't make him an interloper
when in doubt, just quick save, use the command "process_cq Sparte", and build the oligarchy and keep the general for a turn and see if he gets the trait, if not then go back to the quicksave and go ahead with building the allied oligarchy
Build the allied oligarchy in order to terminate the Sparta script, then tear it down and build a factional government
QuintusSertorius is right. The trigger only check the client ruler trait. In some case on my campaigns, I use the client ruler in a different settlement of where I have recruted him. So, currently, if you want, you could use an iberian client ruler in an indian settlement with an allied government.
I haven't gone around to that yet but I would probably make it a democracy to screw around with the Spartans some more.
If you screw with the Spartans, they'll spawn a sizable rebel army during the early campaign where you really can't afford to fight any more battles
