No.
Because you can only have one system trying to locate the rockers. The odds are very poor that 2 systems will agree exactly on where they want the rockers to sit; and they will fight each other. Something will bind, bend, wear fast, get forced out of its seat, or otherwise misbehave and destroy something.
One or the other. Not both.
