It doesn't look like that's possible.  The compositor settings are
accessible in the xfwm4rc file (see
http://www.xfce.org/documentation/docs-4.2/xfwm4.html#hidden_options),
but there doesn't appear to be a setting for inactive windows.  I'm
not sure, but maybe you could utilize wmctrl or devilspie to do
something like this?

Anyone else have any ideas?
