Unfortunately that would require a lot of changes to calibre, because for most devices there is no concept of downloading a nonexistent file.
What you might do is add an empty txt file to the book, than send that to the device. It would create an entry in CCs database while taking almost no space on the device.
At one point I looked at permitting CC to download metadata for all books in the library without downloading the books themselves. It was very slow. However, with the caching scheme we have added it might be better now. I will revisit the question while preparing for the next cc beta cycle.
