well yes it is possible, you just place it over the picture and press Cntrl+T and stretch the polaroid frame to fit the picture, it shouldnt look blurry or stretched if you keep the .psd file and use that.

Well its simply a matter of using the custom shape tool to create a path that makes the border. Then it is scalable infinitly to fit any photo you want to apply it to. So just have the big white rectangle at the bottom, then long thin ones for the sides. Then merge the layers to join the pieces together. Now you have a frame that's 100% scalable.
