If mayqel is asking whether {law'} -- or {puS} for that matter -- can be the Q element in a {A Q law' B Q puS} ("A is Q-er than B") phrase, then I see no reason why not. You would have to listen very carefully, to be sure, but that might appeal to some speakers.
Using the same word twice in a row might seem strange, but I don't think that that sort of thing is unheard of in natural languages.
I cannot not comment on the fact that that sort of repetition shouldn't happen very very much. -- De'vID
