No, libvirtd's scope is a single host. It can't manage VMs on a distant
hosts, so I'm afraid you'll have to query daemons on all the hosts to
get desired info.
That said, libvirtd IS designed to be remote controlled, so it is
certainly feasible to write higher-layer applications that manage
connections to multiple libvirtd and collect results into a single app
for use by the end user. In fact, that's what VDSM does.
