man pages clearly says it is possible:

Once a client mounts the file system, the server issues a file handle to the client for each file (or directory) the client accesses.

As mentioned by Ahsaan it is to be done at the server end and you can specify the node name as well for which u want to give write access.

>Can I set NFS directory to write?

This is confusing terminology. You seem to be confusing directories with file systems.

You either export or mount NFS file systems as read/write or read/only.

You need to do this on the server side. But you can also mount a file system as read only.

Directories just have the normal permissions. Of course if the file system is read/only, you don't really have write access to any file/directory.
