Theoretically, yes. But in daily use, that interpretation does not make
much sense. It's like those English phrases "Clean the car with your
wife. - I don't know if she likes being drenched in soap water."

Again, we have the problem of ambiguity-problem of the {-moH} suffix in
combination with {-'egh}.
