Not sure what you mean. If you are talking about a host machine with
multiple virtual machines under it, you could have the host machine
export them via NFS and have the virtual machines mount them via NFS.

Some virtual environments will let you mount host _filesystems_ on a
virtual client, but having more than one virtual client mount the same
directory is guaranteed to cause problems with write collisions unless
you use some form of shared filesystem like NFS or cluster software.
