Unfortunately not:
In a chroot with jessie and apt-get install libreoffice libreoffice-dev libreoffice-dev-doc, then dist-upgraded:
Preparing to unpack .../libreoffice_5.2.5-2_amd64.deb ...
dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: directory '/usr/share/doc/libreoffice' contains files not owned by package libreoffice, cannot switch to symlink
dpkg: error processing archive /home/rene/Debian/Pakete/LibreOffice/libreoffice/apt/./libreoffice_5.2.5-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
Given libreoffice does contain nothing as it's a metapackage I'd say one could
remove libreoffice.maintscript and make it not being linked (-N for --link-doc):
% dpkg -L libreoffice
/.
