Yes..you can do it server wide. Then if you wish to allow it for a specific 
directory, you may turn it on specifically for that directory.

This is for RaQ2 so you may need a different path on whatever machine you have.

/etc/httpd/conf/access.conf

is the file to change

make a backup first.
I use pico-w access.conf

and look for this not to far into the file:

# This may also be "None", "All", or any combination of "Indexes",
# "Includes", "FollowSymLinks", "ExecCGI", or "MultiViews".

# Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
# doesn't give it to you.

Options SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Includes ExecCGI

Note: I have Indexes turned off. If it is on, the Indexes option will be 
listed.

edit your file, save and back out of pico. Restart httpd.
