Why not?  Doesn't Bazaar working trees on NFS work properly?

If the matter is just that NFS working trees are somewhat slower than
local disk ones, I don't think such a state of affairs would indicate
that "you're not supposed to do that"; it's more like "if you do that,
you should expect somewhat reduced performance".

If you're e.g. working on a diskless client (where even the root
filesystem is NFS-mounted), this might not be possible.
