No, that would break with chroot jails, and require the cert/key files
to be readable by the unprivileged "postfix" ($mail_owner) user, rather
than just root, weakening the security of the long-term keys.

Just a cron job once a week or once a day to rebuild the table:

    postmap -F hash:/etc/postfix/...

Run it at a hour that is spaced away from when the ACME client runs to
update certificates, so that you avoid potential issues with atomicity
of key/cert updates.
