Hi,

Probably not without a customized installer. You can, of course, change
the location manually:

Right-click on My Computer => Properties => Advanced tab => Environment
variables => highlight and click the Edit button. Change the path to
what you want.

I suppose you could automate it with a Registry script if you have to
do a number of computers.
 
User environment variables are in the following Registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment
Temp and TMP
