it is possible to do antispoofing, like

I could be wrong, but i believe dovecot submission is only a proxy to postfix 
submission. Dovecot does not directly delivery mail to the world. Meaning the 
mail is still passing through postfix and 
reject_authenticated_sender_login_mismatch would still be applied.

Indeed it does, I use this exact configuration and it works as expected.

My follow up question would be does dovecot queue the mail or proxy it live? If 
postfix rejected the submission based on something like 
reject_authenticated_sender_login_mismatch does the email client get sent the 
error live by dovecot submission, or would a type of backscatter bounce be 
created between postfix and dovecot?
Dovecot submission is only a relay. It will not queueing or anything like that, 
it always requires a live, functional MTA to back it up. If MTA does not reject 
the mail during sending, then what happens next is up to the MTA.
