you could mount both, but you should talk to the nfs/zfs experts about the proper way.
Theres more than one method of doing so. What i did was something like this: i had a ZFS share called /store and another at /store/Video i wanted to share them via nfs, so i mount /store on /mnt/store on my local system and i mounted /store/Video on /mnt/store/Video but i could have just as easily mounted it somewhere else.
