No. You can only add some swap to your system if you reach the mimit. AFAIK
there is somewhere a small 'daemon' which adds swap if needed. Of course the
swap needs to be reserved, first. You can play around with rlimit to limit
the problem. And you can cick ass all users who try to exploit that :).
Generally a large swap makes u rather safe (with low resource limits).
