It’s been done, but rarely and never by Okrand AFAIK. I found only 5 more examples in my notes:
*chellu'wI' addendum, appendix [Qov]
*leghbe'lu'wI' unseen (one) [GILGAMESH]
*ngoHlu'wI' Christ (“anointed one”), messiah [KBTP]
*poQlu'wI' defendant (i.e. litigant in lawsuit) [source?]
*rachlu'wI' Augment (i.e. genetically enhanced) [source?]

I think that although grammar-wise there's nothing which prohibits the simultaneous use of {-lu'} and {-wI'}, we usually don't do it for reason(s) I don't remember.
I'm just writing this so as to prevent any beginner(s) from developing a habit of writing {-lu'wI'}.
