Ecclesiastical arms only in period, so no. To do so indicates,
literally, that you're married to the other entity and in the case of
bishops, that also implies sovereignty. In the SCA we specifically
forbid the combining of personal and territorial arms in any way for
just that reason.

Heraldry is designed to be easily reproduced by anyone who sees the arms. -
