How to enable KVM virtio multiqueue when launching VM?

Question

I know I can enable Multiqueue on a VM by modifying the VM's xml file as such:

<interface type='network'> 
      <source network='default'/> 
      <model type='virtio'/> 
      <driver name='vhost' queues='N'/> 
</interface> 

This works great, however, I need to find a way to do this prior to launching the VM. Is there a virt-install flag that I can use to enable Multiqueue at instance launch?
