That won't work.  There are a few files in that directory that are
arch-specific and have identical names (repomd.xml being the most
important), so both arches would trample over each other.

Symlinking /nfs/yum/i386/packages and /nfs/yum/x86_64/packages to the
same directory ought to be okay though, and would achieve the desired
effect.
