Yes it is possible.

See page 9, Fig 4 of one of my publications (published in 2007, where
Fig. 4 was prepared with JMP/Genomics 4.0) where the input were three
quantitative traits (HDL, TG and PAI1) and the nominal variable (a
threshold based on quantiles PAI1), was used to color and shape
differently the points in the graph. Following is the hyperlink of the
paper.

Hope this gives you an idea how to arrange data and select points based
on your nominal variable.

Best,

Aldi
