They certainly can be. This is purely an implementation decision. Some existing implementations work this way. Nothing in the spec prohibits this and I doubt if that will change. Incidentally, whether an implementation is stateful (e.g. remembers all nonces used) or stateless is also an implementation decision. I very much doubt that any consensus could be reached on a specification change which either requires the server to be stateful or prohibits it from being so.
