Can I even do this?

 "Unlike RegisterBackgroundWorker, which can only be called
  from within the postmaster, RegisterDynamicBackgroundWorker
  must be called from a regular backend."

Can I call RegisterDynamicBackgroundWorker when not in the postmaster,
but also not in a "regular backend", but rather another BGW?

Put another way, can a BGW be regarded as a "regular backend" for the
purpose of this rule?
