The only possible problem is if the unionfs creates the file at the exact same time rsync does. But from the scenario in the question this wont happen. However if this answer is applied to other situations, it could be a problem yes. What you might be able to do (I havent tried) is touch every single file on /mnt/nas. The write operation should cause it to copy the file. However it will change all the modification times.
