Can you hold a virtual queue and lightning lane at the same time?

Typically, attractions that utilize a Virtual Queue do also offer Individual Lightning Lane access for an additional fee. Currently, you are able to both hold a Virtual Queue Boarding Group and purchase Individual Lightning Lane access for the same attraction.
