All I find in FCOM is
The rudder pedals must then be adjusted to ensure the pilot can achieve both full rudder pedal displacement and full braking simultaneously on the same side.
Although I have been a protagonist of feet up I cannot say it means that. All it means is you should be capable of applying full rudder and differential braking. Why differential braking is added I can tell you that. There was one runway excursion because of sitting too far back the pilot ran out of leg length to apply differential braking. So it is as I said nothing is forbidden or recommended. In A320 I didn't have to particularly teach to keep feet up. Although it is quicker to use differential braking feet up most manage it either way. In a low speed reject right seat take off creates more problems than feet down.
