It was tricky. You need to add a RTL language, e.g. Arabic (Saudi Arabia), to
File > Options > Language, section 'Office authoring languages and proofing'.
For changing the writing direction you can add the commands to the Quick Access
Toolbar in the title bar. Restart. Now you should have item 'Right' in the
drop-down list of 'Gutter Position' in Page Setup tab 'Margins'.
The writing direction is in 'Page Setup' tab 'Layout' for sections, and for
paragraphs via the commands from the Quick Access Toolbar. I have not tested,
whether changing the writing direction is really needed.

Word has a bug, that it writes 'gutterAtTop' in addition to 'rtlGutter'. So you
need to enter the archive and remove 'gutterAtTop' manually. Because I have no
RTL environment I cannot test, whether this bug only exists for my English
UI/German local environment.
