Not in any way that matches the windows share model.

It is possible (but not recommended for all systems) to have Apache serve 
~/public_html  as per user web content.

    http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/public_html.html

It is also possible to have an NFS dir exported and give users
their own dir in it.

And, it is possible to setup ftp accounts/directories for users.

All of these including the windows model have security issues and
should only be enabled with care.
