Hi Samuel,
As far as I can tell it probably is legal. It is hard to find anything in the rules that rules it out.
Sometimes it is referred that the rules talk about your free hand and with a two handed backhand you don't have one.

Doubles Serving Rules
In this video we go over the somewhat complicated rules of serving for doubles in table tennis. There are a couple of extra rules for doubles that you don't apply to singles. In doubles you always serve from the right hand box diagonally to your opponent's right hand box. Each player has 2 serves each. If you've just been receiving then it's your turn to serve next.
