Yes, and it doesn't involve NIS at all.
You need to make sure that usb-storage is compiled as a module (at least
that's what it's called in the 2.6 kernel series) or compiled into the
kernel.
Make sure you have USB hotplugging running. Since you didn't tell us
what your distro is, I can't say much more than this.
When you plug in the USB stick, the driver should log, in the system
logs, creating a new device file for the drive, usually /dev/sda or similar.
In /etc/fstab, make a line for this device with the "user" option. This
will allow users to (u)mount this drive themselves.
That should do it.
