Yes, very possible, and I do exactly the same for a client site.
First I created a new attribute for categories, to allow me to set that a category needs to use the normal link. This is done via a module.
The module structure:
app/code/local/ProxiBlue/AttributeUseNormalFilterLink/
app/code/local/ProxiBlue/AttributeUseNormalFilterLink/Model/Mysql4/
app/code/local/ProxiBlue/AttributeUseNormalFilterLink/etc
app/code/local/ProxiBlue/AttributeUseNormalFilterLink/sql/proxiblue_filterlink_setup
In Model/Mysql4 I have file Setup.php
Contents:
class ProxiBlue_AttributeUseNormalFilterLink_Model_Mysql4_Setup extends Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Setup {
private $_category_attributes = array(
'use_normal_filter_link' => array(
'label' => 'Use normal filter link in left navigation',
'type' => 'int',
'input' => 'select',
'source' => 'eav/entity_attribute_source_boolean',
'default' => '0',
'global' => Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Eav_Attribute::SCOPE_STORE,
'visible' => true,
'required' => false,
'user_defined' => false,
'visible_on_front' => true,
'is_visible_on_front' =>true,
'used_in_product_listing' => true,
)
);
public function getDefaultEntities() {
$entities = array();
$default_attribute_options = array(
'group' => 'General Information',
'required' => false,
);
/* Build Catalog Attributes */
$entities['catalog_category'] = array(
'entity_model' => 'catalog/category',
'attribute_model' => 'catalog/resource_eav_attribute',
'table' => 'catalog/category',
'additional_attribute_table' => 'catalog/eav_attribute',
'entity_attribute_collection' => 'catalog/category_attribute_collection',
'attributes' => array(),
);
foreach ($this->_category_attributes as $name => $options) {
/* Override values provided by the defaults */
$attribute_options = $default_attribute_options;
foreach ($options as $k => $v) {
$attribute_options[$k] = $v;
}
$entities['catalog_category']['attributes'][$name] = $attribute_options;
}
return $entities;
}
}
in etc folder I have the config.xml
contents:
<modules>
<ProxiBlue_AttributeUseNormalFilterLink>
<version>0.0.1</version>
</ProxiBlue_AttributeUseNormalFilterLink>
</modules>
<global>
<models>
<proxiblue_attributeusenormalfilterlink>
<class>ProxiBlue_AttributeUseNormalFilterLink_Model</class>
</proxiblue_attributeusenormalfilterlink>
</models>
<resources>
<proxiblue_filterlink_setup>
<setup>
<module>ProxiBlue_AttributeUseNormalFilterLink</module>
<class>ProxiBlue_AttributeUseNormalFilterLink_Model_Mysql4_Setup</class>
</setup>
</proxiblue_filterlink_setup>
</resources>
</global>
and in the sql fiolder I have the install script : mysql4-install-0.0.1.php
contents:
$installer = $this;
$installer->startSetup();
$installer->installEntities();
$installer->endSetup();
Now you can adjust the filter template to use this attribute, and any category can be set to display the actual category link, and not work as a filter.
Copy the template catalog/layer/filter.phtml to your custtom theme folder, then adjust as follows: (note this has some other customization, so pull the bits you need)
<?php $category = false; ?>
<?php if ($this instanceof Mage_Catalog_Block_Layer_Filter_Category): ?>
<?php $category = Mage::registry('current_category'); ?>
<?php if ($category): ?>
<h2>
<a class='level-top' href="<?php $category->getUrl(); ?>"><?php echo $category->getName(); ?></a>
</h2>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<ol>
<?php foreach ($this->getItems() as $_item): ?>
<li>
<?php if ($_item->getCount() > 0): ?>
<?php
$link = $_item->getUrl();
if(is_object($category) && !$category->getUseNormalFilterLink()){
$filter = $_item->getFilter();
if($filter instanceof Mage_Catalog_Model_Layer_Filter_Category) {
$linkCategory = mage::getModel('catalog/category')->load($_item->getValue());
if($linkCategory->getId()){
$link = $linkCategory->getUrl();
}
}
}
?>
<a href="<?php echo $this->urlEscape($link) ?>"><?php echo $_item->getLabel() ?></a>
<?php else: echo $_item->getLabel() ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php //echo $_item->getCount() ?>
</li>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ol>
Customers are shared either per website, either across all websites, so at least, a customer account is usable on all of the store views that a website contains. Consequently, it is normal that the password reset link works for your store views.
In fact, if you would like to separate the customer accounts between your store views, you would have to create separate websites that would not share customers.

I dont know why you want to do this, but you can achieve by
.htaccess
use 301 redirect rule for that
