No, it should be build also in the posttrans scriptlet of the
kernel-core RPM (with
/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/95-akmodsposttrans.install from the akmods
RPM), but:
1. you have to wait for "some" time before rebooting
2. this may fail with dnf5 that unlike dnf4 do not wait for a
running dnf transaction to finish (waiting for a --wait option of
dnf5)

I agree.
Since my suggestion of launching akmods in a systemd ExecStop hasn't
been accepted (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2011120), I
wrote a workaround similar to the initial version of
akmods-shutdown.service to compile all the kmods when shutting down
the machine.
I can provide this if you want.
Note that akmods-shutdown.service is now almost deprecated and do not
do what should be expected: only calls akmods with no options.
