Yes. /usr/sbin/lvm is present
After unarchiving the initrd.img
$ find . -name lvm
./usr/sbin/lvm
./etc/lvm

λ ls usr/lib/dracut/hooks
cleanup cmdline emergency initqueue mount netroot pre-mount pre-pivot
pre-shutdown pre-trigger pre-udev shutdown shutdown-emergency
λ grep -r -i lvm *
cmdline/30-parse-lvm.sh:if [ -e /etc/lvm/lvm.conf ] && ! getargbool 1
rd.lvm.conf -d -n rd_NO_LVMCONF; then
cmdline/30-parse-lvm.sh: rm -f -- /etc/lvm/lvm.conf
cmdline/30-parse-lvm.sh:LV_DEVS="$(getargs rd.lvm.vg -d rd_LVM_VG=) $(getargs

cmdline/30-parse-lvm.sh: rm -f -- /etc/udev/rules.d/64-lvm*.rules
This seems scripts under cmdline directory parse lvm related parameters
present in the cmdline
Were you looking for lvm related scripts under pre-mount or mount directories?

I have a VM booted with qemu-system-x86_64 and I am building kernel and initrd
on the host. I am looking to boot the VM with -kernel and -initrd options
