Sort of.  Try using the "-alldirs" option in the second column of  
your /etc/exports file, this will allow you to mount subdirectories  
of an exported filesystem in a way that is probably what you want.

Note that you should only export a filesystem once, not multiple  
times; doing so where there is an ancestral relationship between the  
paths will result in an error.  Basicly, you should only export the  
top-level mount points as displayed from the "df" command.
