You probably need a file share rather than a volume. A file share allows mounting of a storage space as a file system (such as using OpenStack Manila). As mentioned in the documentation, you need a specialised cluster filesystem which knows about block storage (https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/admin/volume-multiattach.html). This is rare (e.g. Oracle clusters). Something like CephFS with Manila would meet your use case.
