Hi Livio,
Yes it's possible.
There is a parameter in the config to enable auto selection in base of 
the Nand page size, enable it.

config YAFFS_AUTO_YAFFS2
	bool "Autoselect yaffs2 format"
	depends on YAFFS_YAFFS2
	default y
	help
	  Without this, you need to explicitely use yaffs2 as the file
	  system type. With this, you can say "yaffs" and yaffs or yaffs2
          will be used depending on the device page size.

	  If unsure, say Y.
