I don't think guice can do this. Maybe there is a hook you could use to take 
controle while the injection happens. Does someone else know more?

What you could do as an alternative is to use assisted injection and then 
manually pass this as an assisted parameter. The advantages over calling a 
setter are:
- this is already passed to the constructor.
- because it is part of the interface one cannot forget to pass it

Hope this helps.
