Yes, CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is only overwritten when you set kst_install_prefix:

if(kst_install_prefix)
	set(CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX ${kst_install_prefix} CACHE PATH "User's choice for install prefix" FORCE)
	set(CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX_INITIALIZED_TO_DEFAULT)
endif()

CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR isn't overwritten, so if CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR is supported
by cmake it should work. If CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR isn't supported we could add it
or maybe kst_install_libdir?
