You can do this by changing a hidden preference.

  1. Type about:config into the location bar and press enter
  2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
  3. Locate the preference layout.scrollbar.side, then double click on it and change its value to 3

For more details on that preference see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Layout.scrollbar.side
