IMHO that would be very difficult to torque them & keep them from spinning at the same time. When my truck tires are rotated at Discount Tire they always let the truck down before they torque.
I was taught when checking the torque to loosen then retorque. By constantly just torqueing without loosening will eventually stretch & break the lug nuts. Also to torque initially, drive a couple hundred miles then retorque & done til wheel is removed again, not necessary at every stop.
