It is possible if you can afford to configure multiple delivery transports
that have parallel rate delays.
Below is an old posting.

However, you can increase concurrency by using multiple SMTP
transports and random selection.
In /etc/postfix/master.cf:
smtp1 unix - - n - - smtp
smtp2 unix - - n - - smtp
...
smtpN unix - - n - - smtp
smtp1_destination_concurrency_failed_cohort_limit = 10
smtp2_destination_concurrency_failed_cohort_limit = 10
...
smtpN_destination_concurrency_failed_cohort_limit = 10
In /etc/postfix/main.cf:
smtp1_destination_rate_delay = 1
smtp2_destination_rate_delay = 1
...
smtpN_destination_rate_delay = 1
transport_maps =
inline:{
{ $myhostname = $local_transport }
{ localhost = $local_transport }
{ localhost.$mydomain = $local_transport }
# Other domains that don't deliver over SMTP...
}
randmap:{ smtp1:, smtp2:, ..., smtpN: }
