This is sadly not possible. polkit will only authenticate against unix users. I filed an RFE long ago requesting for polkit to be generalized so that we could use it against virtual (ie non-UNIX system) identities but it was rejected. So effectively the libvirt polkit access control driver is only useful if you're connecting to libvirt over UNIX sockets :-( I really ought to get around to writing a custom libvirt access control driver that works in all cases.....
