I haven't tried it. In theory if might work.. but both the treadle and the handcrank run the handwheel from systems that fall back with gravity. That is the wheels will turn after you are done powering them. The balance of the handwheel could be thrown off greatly at the speeds a treadle can produce. Also, White hand cranks are pretty rare.
I've ben curious about this too.
