Is there an official way to get list of superblock backups for existing
filesystem, other than backup/newfs/restore ?

Yes. Use newfs -N which will print out the superblock locations. My experience also tells me to also put exactly the same parameters on the newfs line that you used when you originally created the volume.

From the newfs(8) manpage:
-N Cause the file system parameters to be printed out without really
creating the file system.
