No, it's nothing to do with Brexit. Just sensible queue management.
Passengers arrive more-or-less randomly at the port/terminal, so the border control staff are kept constantly busy and the queues are normally short. But the trains/ferries then cause bunching of people. If the border checks were done on arrival, there would be a huge queue as each train or ferry arrived, then the staff would be sat around doing nothing awaiting the next train or ferry.
