Obviously no. In fact, I'd stay away from NFS alltogether if I could.

For example, people who use SqWebMail have problems with NFS if their
clocks are not synchronized.

Also on some systems NFS implementations
are worse than on others. NFSv3 didn't work for me at all on Linux when
I tried to configure a shared FS. There are other alternatives like
network block devices, but in my experience they're still very
troublesome. SAN is where it will soon be.
