If you are preparing your beds now, for planting next year, then there isn't much that would be off-limits.
Contrary to what you've stated, carrots will thrive in soil that has been manured the year before. They love a light, stone free, well drained, and fertile soil with plenty of well-rotted organic matter in it. Just make sure that, before you sow, the soil is lump free.
