Yes, if you want to mount NFS shares for Remotes within Docker, you need to enable privileged mode.

### Can Xen Orchestra be deployed from a Docker image instead of being compiled?

A self-hosting thread says you can compile Xen Orchestra or use a Docker image, and it connects Docker use to backup and Terraform support.
