I know that's overly optimistic for this season but just curious for the sake of discussion.
No. The green slip trigger must be hit BEFORE you can get premium pay. In your hypothetical situation you would fly multiple green slips and only get single pay for them. You need to hi the green slip credit trigger using your regular trips, payback days, vacation, bank, etc. and then any green slip credit beyond the trigger is paid as premium pay.
