man mount:
x-mount.mkdir[=mode]
Allow to make a target directory (mountpoint). The
optional argument mode specifies the filesystem access mode
used for mkdir(2) in octal notation. The default mode is
0755. This functionality is supported only for root users.
... so:
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/foo -o x-mount.mkdir
