-bogh and noun-noun constructions

I was thinking about this this morning... Can you shove a -bogh clause in
between nouns in a noun-noun construction?
Given:
nuH qun = "The history of the weapon"
Can you do:
nuH'e' Qachbogh qun = "The history of the weapon he wielded"
The second noun would be confused with the clause, I'd think ("the weapon
which history wielded")
