I've come across individual posts from people who supposedly have done this in CentOS6.5. Basically, all that is shown in the posts is the XML file generated, no mention of *how* that file is generated. Virt-manager has no provision for attaching directly to the gluster volume except as a mount.
Neither virt-manager nor virt-install recognize the gluster:// type.

I have used this functionality with Cloudstack on CentOS 6.5 with stock KVM, it works.
What you need is:
-drive file=gluster+tcp://storage.cloudstack.tld:24007/primary/d691ac19-4ec1-47c1-b765-55f804b78bec

Right now you need to fuse-mount the gluster volume to create the backing file, but you can start the vm using gfapi as above. See this article from Nield de Vos who authored the native Glusterfs storage driver for Cloudstack:
