No it is not possible to relocate the hibernation file, hiberfil.sys. It must reside on the Primary boot partition (which ever you boot from) so that when the computer comes out of hibernation, it finds hiberfil.sys and restores the PC to the state from which it entered hibernation. And just so you plan your partitioning accordingly, however much RAM you have, that is how big hiberfil.sys will be.

Believe me I wish I could relocate it too. Your only option is to disable it from Control Panel > Power Options.
