No - the fact that it is attached as a duplicate is enough I think.

This is an extremely niche request. LO could NOT prompt you on open to say that
there is a dangling document - that would be terribly annoying and confusing
because you already said you didn't want it saved on exit. So it would
completely be left to the user to actively seek and recover that file.

Plus, it would eventually lead to a large build-up of files.

You can achieve the result you want by pointing your backup software at LO's
backup folder.
