Michael,

Maybe you would not want to put the diodes in parallel,
but apparently it is possible to put them back-to-back (ie in series, but one diode forward biased and the other reverse-biased).

As the current-limiting feature works if a diode is reverse-biased, the second one is forward-biased and does "nothing"...


See below:

Of course, you may have other reasons (reasons I haven't heard of, or did not think of) not to do so...
