No, unfortunately not in a sane way today. The magic is all in the kernel, and
userspace has no control over it, besides not to load a driver.
It could be possible to specify a depmod driver order (man depmod.conf), so
that one module gets loaded before the other one, but that may be unreliable in
some situations, especially after device re-plug when the modules are already
loaded. But it's probably still worth to give it a try.
The only safe way is that the user blacklists one or the other driver.
There is infrastructure in the kernel and udev now, to allow per-device driver
binding configuration with udev rules, but this is not enabled by default. It
will need a lot of testing, as it completely changes how Linux handles driver
binding. We may get ready for that in the next months.
