I never used mod_rewrite but I'm sure you can do that. It may be little more
complex than mod_userdir though. I'll still prefer mod_userdir as in just three
lines I can set it up for all users like

Userdir dirname
Userdir enabled
Userdir disabled root 

The last line is not needed 
and now any request for http://server/~user will serve contents from
/home/user/dirname

I think with mod_rewrite this can also be achieved with something like

RewriteRule ^/usr(.*) /home/usr/dirname/$1

I hope (not sure though read the docs on mod_rewrite)  this will serve
http://server/usr from /home/usr/dirname
