No. You can

a) Specify a forward_path that does not include the UNIX home
directory, and move all .forward files there (leaving behind a
symlink so that users can still edit their own file). I expect that
a root-owned directory would suffice.

b) Use a transport map and delivery agent such as virtual(8) which
does not support forwarding. That requires a bit of scripting to
generate the virtual_mailbox_uid/gid/maps files from /etc/passwd.
