That shouldn't be a problem, but I haven't tried it, myself.
(...it still isn't clear to me whether having a working copy on an NFS partition is a problem, if you are using a library (so have no pristines in your {arch} directory in the working copy) on the local disks of each of the machines from which you access the NFS working copy.)
The problems are with reference trees (pristines and revlibs). If the reference tree isn't on NFS, but your working tree is on NFS, that will work. If the device number changes, tla will have to work harder when computing changesets, but it won't do anything incorrect.
