It is not possible to change at deployment time, you would need to
build your own custom images.

Our images are now defined here:
https://pagure.io/fedora-kiwi-descriptions/blob/rawhide/f/teams/cloud/cloud.xml

If you want to use something else, you'd want to have your own version
of the definitions and modify that file to use the filesystem of your
choice.

Is there a particular reason you want to use ext4 or xfs for your
rootfs? Typically the pattern we see is that people attach a secondary
volume or use S3 and put their data on that instead of the rootfs.
