Well, you probably can use Optimus with QubesOS, except it is pretty useless, because QubesOS renders everything in AppVMs on CPU. GPU is used:
a. In dom0, where integrated GPU is usually enough. b. In HVMs if you use GPU passthrough. Note that you cannot start multiple VMs with the same VM assigned. (Not sure how hard/easy is it to configure GPU passthrough. It is hard not supported on my old laptop, so I have no experience with this.) The only thing I want from Nvidia is not to consume power (and not to produce heat), which is what bbswitch is useful for. Well, if you have an output wired to Nvidia GPU, Optimus could be useful to handle this output. I had a limited luck using intel-virtual-output with opensource Nvidia drivers (added a second screen, but the system was rather unusable then). Maybe I would have more luck with proprietary drivers.
