There is an extension to do this, at
https://extensions.libreoffice.org/extensions/timestamp-backup
which runs on OpenOffice.

This gives a toolbar button to make a timed/dated backup of the current file.  
Note that it does not replace /File /Save, but if one was familiar with toolbar 
editing, it could be made do so.
