Yup, it's definitely possible. All Glance nodes will need to share the same
database as well as the same file system. Common ways of sharing the file
system are to mount /var/lib/glance/images either from NFS (like you
mentioned) or Gluster.
I've done both in the past with no issues. The usual caveats with shared
file systems apply: file permissions, ownership, and such. Other than that,
you shouldn't have any problems.
Hope that helps,
Joe
