Not at this time, the required support is missing at the libvirt level,
it's really all or nothing

Having users use the qemu:///session libvirt connection, they can each
have their own VMs run as their own user, stored in the their homedir,
but there are technical limitations: no use of bridged networking, VMs
can't be autostarted, among others.
