Is it possible to change the knob direction for choices on the lcd?

Go to the uiconfig tab of the firmware. There's a menu direction invert, or something along those lines. Just change the true to false or vice versa.

A note: this only changes the menu navigation direction, i.e. which way moves the cursor up or down a list. It does not reverse everything that the encoder does. The speed and extrusion multipliers don't reverse direction with this config change. Anybody know how to do that one? I'd like to know.

To be more specific, find #define UI_INVERT_MENU_DIRECTION false and change it to true.

An update for the 0.91 firmware:
To change the direction on the click encoder for the menus with 0.91 firmware:

in the ui.h file, change
#define UI_INVERT_MENU_DIRECTION from true to false

There are several UI_INVERT_MENU_DIRECTION entries in this file - the one you are looking for is about 25 rows below:
#if FEATURE_CONTROLLER==13 // SeeMeCNC LCD + Rambo

I did not have to change the entry in uiconfig.h
