There is no existing option to thick provision images within RBD. When an image is created or cloned, the only actions that occur are some small metadata updates to describe the image. This allows image creation to be a quick, constant time operation regardless of the image size. To thick provision the entire image would require writing data to the entire image and ensuring discard support is disabled to prevent the OS from releasing space back (and thus re-sparsifying the image).
