There is the Mirror Up mode via the capturemode config (or set by camera wheel).

It is more of an alternating mirror up - take picture and mirror down sequence
(You need to do capture-image twice to go through every sequence.)

The mirror does not stay up for multiple captures in one row.

I also tried with my D750 in "preview" mode where the mirror is already up, but
it does mirror movement in that case.
