We've already got a check in ram_save_page:

    if (rs->xbzrle_enabled && !migration_in_postcopy()) {
        pages = save_xbzrle_page(rs, &p, current_addr, block,
                                 offset);

so that's supposed to allow you to enable xbzrle with postcopy and take
advantage of xbzrle during the precopy phase.
