No, kCFI is currently implemented in a target specific manner and Sami
only added AArch64 and X86 support in the initial change:

He does have a generic version in progress but I assume it would not be
hard for one of your LLVM folks to add the kCFI operand bundle lowering
to the SystemZ backend to get access to it sooner (and it may allow for
a more optimized sequence of instructions if I understand correctly?):
