Well, in that case you'd have to use direct mounts (which don't work as
expected in automount4).  Alternatively, you can always

mkdir /export
mv /home /export

And start automounting your home directories from localhost.   Don't
worry, automount will detect it being local and will not use NFS, rather
it will --bind mount the filesystems, so there is no performance hit.

HTH,
