I want to build a void linux based system with awesomeWM window manager

But immediately there was a question about the choice of DE

After googling I realized that xfce and lxqt are suitable for me.

Which one should I use?

    Lxqt is lighter weight and more future proof. Xfce is more mature, full featured, and easier to find gtk apps to use

        Are you looking to rice? If so, both will offer basically the same tools and impediments as you’ll have to redo everything. If you just want to tweak some settings, XFCE should be easier to tweak. Though I might be working with outdated information
