a bit strange
e.g.:
a) cantonese usually don't say
ngo4 yiu4 nei1 go2 bun2 syu1
they say
ngo4 yiu4 go2 (yat1) bun2 syu1
b) strictly speaking,
cantonese usually don't say
kui4 jing3 joi4 dang2 nei4
kui4 & jing3 joi4 both together sound weird and their formats are not matching with one another because kui4 is an informal pron. as he/she while jing3joi4 is a much formal continuous (progressive) tense.
jing3joi4 is usually used in written format or in newscasting, documentaries, etc rather than in daily conversation. if you talk with someone saying "....jing3joi4....", it sounds a bit strange.
