I have a worker node pool with 2 node count of size B2s. Currently RAM memory is saturated and due to quota limit and budget constraints I couldn't scale both verticaly and horizontaly. Is it possible to enable swap memory for a specific node?

It is not possible to enable swap memory for a specific node. AKS is a managed offering that will not have direct control over the specific Virtual Machines in the AKS Node Pool !
Couple of suggestions:
Your subscription might have got some minimum amount of Compute Quota per region per SKU. You can try to add a new Node Pool with new SKU.

To create node pool with custom configuration for Azure Kubernetes Service refer this documentation:
