I think it should be possible. You'd have to customize the security such that the user has admin privileges but can only see a limited set of users. You'd need a custom security domain that grants read write privileges on the specific users. You should be able to split the users into separate folders on the repository level, but that doesn't exist in the UI. So setting up such a domain may be tricky.

See the documentation on security:

https://documentation.bloomreach.com/14/library/concepts/security/authorization-model-concepts.html

And some walkthroughs on common cases https://documentation.bloomreach.com/14/library/concepts/security/how-to.html

The cms UI is written in wicket. You can hook into this to add your own fucntionality. You have a very limited ability to customize the cms. For example, in the document editor. Mostly though you are stuck with it looking as it does.
