It's not hard.  Symlink your pool (commonly /var/lib/BackupPC) to your
mounted NFS path (or change the TopDir).  I did it this way for a few years.

That being said (and with the repeated statements of "storage is cheap"), I
never exceeded 3-4 MBps on a backup run.  In the end, it was better to slap
a large drive into a machine and keep the pool local.  Hey, any number of
people might've said that.
