just give sudo permission to the user
To accomplish follow this
-> edit /etc/sudoers
<username> ALL=/sbin/yum , /sbin/<yum-relate commands>
-> save and quit
That's it.
Have a Great day

I guess no. May be you can try if chroot will help you in any ways.
Recently when I came across a similar situation. I had written a small

prefix.
If you can detail your requirement, I can give you a more appropriate
answer.
