I'm afraid it's not possible (anyone that thinks they can solve this, please speak up!)
couchdb-lucene allows Javascript functions specifically so you can duplicate code from your normal couch views so you can achieve the illusion of "joins" without the (imho) intractable performance issues that ensue. What you ask for can be done by multiple calls from the client, which is a typical approach for couchdb views too. B.
