You expect me to believe that's not valid?

Rich,

Having given your question some thought, I believe I would not accept two appeals in one sentence.

The reason is, there are situations where the "order of appeals" could have a material impact on the game, depending on the sequnce they were made.

I would not want any ambiguity regarding that sequence. So if a coach WERE to make a "compound appeal sentence" (assuming we're in a FED game, and Time has been called), I'd simply say something like, "Let's take it one at a time, Rich. What would you like to appeal?"
