Yes, but DCU flag can be used on egress interface only.

This solution is obvous. Your static route was create additional inner
label which is recognized be router as "local delivery" ad stripped on
ingress (from core) I/O Manager (Bi chip). Then Bi-chip creates  lookup
key which is of IP type. So Cf-chip (IP-2) make regular simple and
single IP lookup.

Without static route Junos do not generate labels for local address
(/32) but only for direct addresses (connected NETWORK). Ant label for
direct addresses prefix is processed by IP-2 to find egress nterface and
L2 encapsulation.

On M-series you can make multiple lookups fo the same lookup key. But
lookup key is small, so it can be IPv4 xor IPv6 xor MPLS xor Other. So
you can't make lookup for MPLS label and then IPv4 during single IP-2
visit.
