Sorry, been meaning to answer for weeks. It is possible, hope you have
found it yourself in the meantime…
You can just set a partition to be kept with initialize=false for the
drive (http://doc.opensuse.org/projects/autoyast/configuration.html#idm139795988123840)
and create=false, format=false for the partition(s) in question
(http://doc.opensuse.org/projects/autoyast/configuration.html#idm139795988095376).

We use it to keep our /scratch. If you want, I can give you the
snippet of our live (12.3) profile next week.
