Not as far as any of us know. It’s been discussed here before and no
solution has been found.
As I suggested back when this thread was young, this command will put
all of Postfix's log messages into /var/log/mail.log:
log stream --info --predicate 'senderImagePath CONTAINS "postfix"'
--style syslog >> /var/log/mail.log
It's trivial to create a launchd .plist file to run that at boot time
and let you start/stop it with launchctl.
That may be a bit heavy for a busy server because it pipes all of the
log messages through a userspace process, but it will do what you want.
It remains true that macOS has been unfit for most server work since
Sierra as a direct result of conscious choices by Apple to make it so.
Even if the ugly hack above works for you, it's just a battle tactic in
a war that cannot be won. Apple has clearly demonstrated that they want
macOS to be not be used for server duty.
