no, not possible, except for bugs
Documentation suggests it's the task's share of available physical memory. So unless something is wrong with the program that's calculating this, or with the kernel that's doing the memory accounting, no it's not possible.

wracct
wracct(1M) System Administration Commands wracct(1M)
NAME
wracct - write extended accounting records for active processes and tasks
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/wracct -i id_list [-t record_type]
{process | task}
DESCRIPTION
The wracct utility allows the administrator to invoke the extended accounting system, if active, to write intermediate records representing
the resource usage of a selected set of processes or tasks. For tasks, a record_type option is also supported, allowing the administrator
to request the writing of:
o an interval record, which reflects task usage since a previous interval record (or since task creation if there is no interval
record), or
o a partial record, which reflects usage since task creation.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-i id_list Select the IDs of the tasks or processes to write records for. Specify id_list as a comma- or space-separated list of
IDs, presented as a single argument. For some shells, this requires appropriate quoting of the argument.
-t record_type Select type of record to write for the selected task or process. For tasks, record_type can be partial or interval. par-
tial is the default type, and the only type available for process records.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
process Treat the given ID as a process ID for the purposes of constructing and writing an extended accounting record.
task Treat the given ID as a task ID for the purposes of constructing and writing an extended accounting record.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Writing a Partial Record
Write a partial record for all active sendmail processes.
# /usr/sbin/wracct -i "`pgrep sendmail`" process
Example 2 Writing an Interval Record
Write an interval record for the task with ID 182.
# /usr/sbin/wracct -t interval -i 182 task
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
1 An error occurred.
2 Invalid command line options were specified.
3 Pertinent components of extended accounting facility are not active.
FILES
/var/adm/exacct/task
/var/adm/exacct/proc Extended accounting data files.
