You mean creating an x64_64 (aka amd64) nfsroot on an i386 machine?
No, normally this is not possible, since fai-make-nfsroot does a
chroot into the new nfsroot and so the kernel must execute commands
inside the nfsroot which are 64bit.
Yes, it's possible, but only if your host is running a 64bit kernel.
Then the userland tools on your host can remain 32bit tools, but the
kernel will able to execute 64bit executables inside the nfsroot.
