No,it is not possible.I even ask 惠州新华书店 and they said they never seen it.
I think to write a good dict on huizhou (not huizhou hakka)the author should be 刘叔新。Have you read his book?

The thing is some benzi already found out by taiwanese but they still refuse to follow it.

In ciangciu some areas also use ng instead of uinn.
We can easily hear even in TV people using tu and tir but not only ti.
Taiwanese do retain sandhi of 53 to 24 in cuanciu style.There are even 6th tone 31 use by area near kaoxiong.
