Hey!

Is it possible to point a subdommain to another DNS server?

And if so, how?

yes
subdomain.domain.com. IN NS ns1.somewhereelse.com
subdomain.domain.com. IN NS ns2.somewhereelse.com

so you can contron *.subdomain.domain.com from ns*.somewherelese.com

do you manage your DNS ?

it need to be set in DNS

just edit the zone file for domain and insert the lines i've mentioned above.
