Oh no. The progname module is there to simplify things for both programs and test suite. It would be better the other way around: Let m4 use the 'progname' module. If you feel that it contains too much code (like the libtool workaround), make this code conditional. In [1] you mentioned a way to detect whether libtool is used; you can use that to enable the libtool-specific code in progname only when libtool is used.
