I don't think so.  I'm not so much knowledgeable about that, but AFAIK for the 
background jobs not to block Geany's spawning, it would require for Geany to 
inherit those children from the process it spawned, as they didn't deamonize 
themselves and need a parent.
I don't know what Geany could even do (portably, nonetheless) to achieve that, 
but I'm not quite sure it makes much sense to support that.

I understand your use case, but it seems fairly hacky to put that in the 
Makefile.  I myself do something similar with Lilypond files, but have a 
separate (run) command to show the generated PDF, which doesn't have the 
problem you're facing.
