Does there exist a Galois extension $L/\mathbb{Q}$ with Galois group $A_4$ (the alternating group on four letters) such that all the decomposition groups are cyclic?

This question is motivated by the answer by Kasper Andersen to my questionmy question. Namely, a desired example (if exists) would permit one to answer in the negative this hard questionthis hard question.
