I guess you mean if it is possible for an application to
choose where it's audio is routed. A short answer to that
is no. Then again Maemo is quite open platform and almost
anything can be hacked to behave differently, but then you
are on your own and there is no guarantee that your device
works reliably anymore.

The short answer to this is also no. The general rule for 
choosing the profile when connected to a BT audio device
goes like this:
1. If not in a call use A2DP, if that is not available use
   HSP/HFP.
2. If in a call (CS or VoIP) use HSP/HFP, if that is not 
   available use device earpice or speakers.
