I don't think that you can achieve it with only 2 nodes, as you can't protect
yourself of split brain.
Ovirt supports only glusterfs of replica 3 arbiter 1. If you create your own glusterfs ,
you can use glusterd2 with a "remote arbiter" in another location. That will
give you protection from split brain and as it is remote - the latency won't kill your
write speed.
I can recommend you to get a VM in your environment (not hosted on any of the 2 hosts) or
a small machine with a SSD and use that as pure arbiter.
Using one of the 2 nodes as arbiter brick is not going to help, as when that node fails -
the cluster on the other node will stop working.
It's the same with hosting NFS on one of the machines.
As far as I know DRBD is not yet fully integrated, but you can give it a try.Still, using
only 2 nodes gives no protection from split brain.

Is it possible to have only two physical hosts with NFS and be able to do VM HA /
Failover between these hosts?
Both hosts are identical with RAID Drive Arrays of 8TB.
If so, can anybody point me to any docs or examples on exactly how the Storage setup is
done so that NFS will replicate across the hosts?
If not what file system should I use to achieve this?
Thanks
