only if you dont use the glance multi store feature.
you can have independet glance deployment with the file store without shared filesystem
and automtic replciation in that case you can import image to speicic stores via the glance api.

and you can copy data between them using the image copy import scheme.

to do this in kolla you will proably need to do the glance configurtion per host vai
the config overriede mechanium but kolla shoudl provide the flexablity to configure that if you want too.
