Is this a rule, that inherently plural nouns in english (for example "coordinates") are always grammatically singular in klingon ?

Yes. TKD 3.3.2:

Inherently plural nouns are treated grammatically as singular nouns in that singular pronouns are used to refer to them... For example, in the sentence cha yIghuS Stand by torpedoes! or Get the torpedoes ready to be fired! the verb prefix yI-, an imperative prefix used for singular objects, must be used even though the object (cha torpedoes) has a plural meaning.
