Does 02 have Beam susp? Is an Alignment possible?

I went to test drive an 02 Maxima with kinda high mileage and noticed that the rear tires were worn on the inner part. (bad camber) I forgot to notice whether the rears had an independent or beam setup. So i want to know whether a 2002 Maxima has the dreaded beam suspension and if the rear camber can even be adjusted?

Thanks..

I think the rear tires are that way because the owner probably changed the front tires and moved the old front tires to the back. I don't believe an alignment is need for the rear beam setup.
