Probably not a good idea.
The interaction between the vertical and the feed to the G5RV will be severe. You will have large quantities of RF forced onto the G5RV feeder.
I ran a quick EZNEC model of 2 verticals 2.4" apart. It indicates that at 100w you would induce 45w onto the feeder. Even QRP levels would not appear to be safe. I'd think you are pretty assured of blowing something up.
It would be an interesting experiment though, if you wanted to try it and report back on what burned up . . .

During FD we were discussing portable antenna options for next year. We were considering a 33' fiberglass pole with a veritical and a G5RV on the same pole. A 31' piece on wire running vertically down the pole and also a G5RV supported by that same pole. Then just connect them to the K3 Ant 1 and 2 jacks and away we go, however should we expect to flood the Ant jack which is not in use with RF due to the antennas being so close? Any thoughts?
