Yes. You can target your GPO to a certain user set. This can be done by using security groups. Essentially you can make it so that GPO is only applied to that security group.

Attaching some information below.

The users or PCs would all need to be a part of a certain group (you can create one if wish) or you could apply GPOs individually to each of the users / PCs

Evo_x13’s post is the right choice…security groups would be your best option to achieve what you are looking for.

You can push the policies by using the command gpupdate in command prompt
