I don't believe SLD offers any immediate way... but I can think of a slow
one
that might work using existing GeoServer extensions

Actually, the dashoffset just changes the starting point for the dashoffset
pattern,
so it cannot be replicated on the other side.
One thing that might work if your lines are mostly straight, but it's
somewhat complicated and inefficient,
is to extract the two end points, buffer them, and then perform a
difference,
using the many filter functions provided by GeoServer:
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/filter/function_reference.html
See some examples here:
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/styling/sld-extensions/geometry-transformations.html
That said, it would be better to write a custom filter function to shorten
a line instead, which
would require some java programming. I think it's also possible to write
filter functions
using a scripting language with the geoscript hooks, but I can't find
documentation
on how to do that. Maybe Justin (cc'ed) has some pointers
Cheers
