I'm unsure if the question was clearly answered.  If you want to move the
swap to another file system, such as /home/swap/<client>, this is ok.  If
/home is already exported, then you cannot export /home/swap/<client>.
You will however, have to give root access for that client to /home.  This
does present some security risks, but the only other alternates is to live
with small swap spaces, increase the /exports/swap partition, or create a
new partition dedicated to client swap files.  The default size for
/exports/swap in the suninstall installation is rediculously small.
