Actually, I think that is great! According to the rules it is perfectly legal.
Why? The coach is not a team member (see the definition in 4-34-4) and the pregame dunking rule only applies to team members per 10-3-4.

Naw, it ain't the purpose and intent of the rules to let coaches, trainers, etc. line up and dunk the ball in warm-ups. Use R4-34-2 and R10-4-1 and nip it in the bud. Bah, humbug.
