I believe you can. On my system, I use "netbios name = savedbysamba" in
smb.conf.
Check out the man page for smb.conf(5)
netbios name (G)
This sets the NetBIOS name by which a Samba server is known. By default it is
the same as the first component of the host´s DNS name. If a machine is a
browse server or logon server this name (or the first component of the hosts
DNS name) will be the name that these services are advertised under.
See also "netbios aliases".
Default: Machine DNS name.
Example: netbios name = MYNAME
