Ah, then Timo's reply was right. He suggested you do the lmtp-deliveries to the same server that you would send you imap-user to. You can do this
trough dovecot director and lmtp-proxying.

So instead of:

        lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp

you should use:

        lmtp:tcp:1.2.3.4:24

where 1.2.3.4 would be the Dovecot LMTP proxy that proxies to the same
machine as you would use for imap for this particular recipient.

I see.
So as far as I understood:

- I set up a new server as LMTP proxy for my two MX 10 to connect to
- the proxy redirects to my backend imap servers which will then store the mails on my shared storage and the index files to a local disk (so I have to enable LMTP additionally to enable this servers to store the mails) - I set up a frontend imap server for my users to connect to which will redirect them to the backend servers

Am I right so far?
