My client has asked me to create a fillable form field in Acrobat following a design they did in InDesign. They used Proportional Lining for the field's numbers, but Acrobat does not seem to have an option for that Opentype feature. It uses default figure style which is not what the client wants. Can I specify the numbers in a form field use the font's proportional lining?

I doubt it. The formatting options in form fields are very limited. You can enable the Rich Text Formatting for that field that will give you some additional options, but that's about it.
