You can write facts to be no-ops on nodes where you do not want them to run, and you can use the 'confine' function inside custom fact implementations to make Facter use facts only on certain nodes. You cannot prevent all defined facts from being synced to every node, however, nor Facter executing the fact definition (but perhaps not evaluating it).
