It depends on the codec, not the format.

With a codec like MJPEG, it is possible. There are tools to do it with
individual images, look up jpegtran.

But with video codecs that use temporal compression, a visible part of
the next image can depend on a cropped part of the current image, and
that makes it impossible.
