SN74AVC4T774: Direction control using GPIO

Part Number: SN74AVC4T774

Tool/software:

Hi,

I want to confirm whether SN74AVC4T774 can be used as a buffer for SPI signals with VCCA and VCCB same 3.3V level.

My design includes a microcontroller and processor interfaced with the SPI interface and either the microcontroller or processor can act as the SPI master.

i would like to place a buffer in between the MCU and Processor. 

In the datasheet of SN74AVC4T774 it is mentioned that the DIR pin should be connected to VCCA.

Since either MCU or processor can be spi master in my design, i want to change the direction using a GPIO control, 

is it possible to connect 3.3V level GPIO to DIR pins to control the direction?
