Up front: I don't know. Not my area of expertise, but I also don't
think you've given enough information about your system to really
answer.

1) Are you using openrc or systemd? (which version?)
2) Are you using an initramfs? (Generated by what version of what?)
3) Are there any circumstances where your root filesystem is read-only?

But why would you want to? As has been pointed out at least a few
times, and is described in the link I gave earlier, anything in there
will be automatically moved to your swap partition if doing so
benefits your system.

The only circumstances I can think of where this wouldn't happen is if
you don't have swap (understandable in that circumstance), or if you
have swappiness set to 0.
