You can try it in virt-rescue first, because guestfish <> virt-rescue:

http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-faq.1.html#whats-the-difference-between-guestfish-and-virt-rescue-

Assuming it works in 'virt-rescue --network', which it ought to, you
can then try running it from guestfish using the debug backdoor, also
described in the FAQ entry above.

Something like this, not tested:

  guestfish <<EOF
  
  add-domain guest readonly:true
  set-network true
  
  run
  
  [...some mount-ro commands here...]
  
  debug sh "rsync /local server:/remote"
  
  EOF
