Yes, it is possible as discussed by "Hector Correa". Following should be the way to update schema for exact search.

<field name="exact_field" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true"/>

I have used this case for dictionary implementation where exact word is searched. "string" field type is the solution.

If you want exact matches you could use a String field in Solr. I suspect the field that you are searching on is a Text field.

Be aware that on String fields the search will only succeed if the values are identical (including case, punctuation, spaces).

You can use the Analysis Screen to see how matches will be made for these two different kind of field types.
