Now to my question, is it then possible to send a player out on the first T.
E.g
In the other thread somebody (can't remember who) sent out A1. When she walked out, B1 waved at her saying "See ya". The official then sent B1 out as well.
Now, this was NCAA rules I think. In FIBA, would it be legal to hand out a T for this (since it's not a physical contact you can't have an unsportsmanlike. And Calling a DQ for this seems excessive to me) and then send the player out.
B1 would only have one Technical, but would still have to leave the gym.

There is no such a beast as a "technical foul with go out". It is either a T or a disqualifying foul. A disqualifying foul can be technical or unsportsmanlike (no contact or contact, unrelated to the status, live or dead, of the ball).
If you don't think that the behavior of B1 is worthy a D, then it is a T and the player can remain on the court. If B1 had already got a T for unsporting behavior, then this second T should be called directly as a D: not by rule, but by common sense.
