Can you brake-torque this DCT ?

Does anyone know if you can do a brake-torque launch of the I4 with the DCT, to get better acceleration off the line? I know you cannot with a normal DCT, although some DCT's have a launch control that dumps the clutch at a higher RPM. I would think with a torque converter a brake-torque launch might be possible. I don't have a TLX yet, so I cannot try it myself. And yes, I know this is bad for cars, but if done infrequently should not impact reliability.
