You can't create hard links, no.  You should be able to create symlinks,
however (ln -s).  I don't know if this will work correctly on the
bayes_* files themselves;  however I've successfully moved user's
.spamassassin directories to deal with quota issues caused by large AWL
files.

Can you use bayes_path in your user_prefs?  I don't recall whether
that's allowed in there, and I don't have a 3.x to refer to.  Check the
man page.
