Amazon AWS S3 Lifecycle rule exception?

I've got a few s3 buckets that I'm using as a storage backend for Duplicacy which stores its metadata in chunks right alongside the backup data.

I current have a lifecycle rule to move all objects with the prefix "chunks/" to Glacier Deep Archive. The problem is, I then can't list the contents of a backup revision because some of those chunks have backup metadata in them that's needed to list, initiate a restore, etc...

The question is, is there a method where I could apply some tag to certain objects such then, even though they are in the "chunks/" folder, the are exempt from the lifecycle rule?

Looking for solution to basically the same problem.

I've seen this which seems consistent with what I'm finding which is it can't be done in a straightforward fashion. This is a few years old, I'll be disappointed if this is the answer.

Expected to see the exclude use case in these examples but no luck.
