No, it's not legal.  Ordinals must come after a noun.

Doch wa'DIch 'oHmeH Doch yIlan
Place the thing so it's first.

The type of grouping the bodies or plates are in isn't usually important.
Most of the time, /ngop/ will do nicely in place of "stack of plates," for
instance.

You might say /lom ghom/ "group of bodies" for a nice rhyme.  Likewise with
/lom HuDHom/ "hill of bodies."
