If you want to do this on your own, then I suspect you would want to
set the "cachefile" property to "none". According to zpool(8) this
would prevent the kernel from writing the pool's configuration to the
system cache file. Presumably that would prevent it being imported
automatically.
At boot you could explicitly import the pools you want, and at
shutdown you could presumably export them before networking goes down.

I believe to get that behaviour, you need to use "reboot -q". As per reboot(8):
-q
Quick. Reboot quickly and ungracefully, without
shutting down running processes first.
