The {-moH} adds an object to otherwise objectless verbs, so I
don't see why it shouldn't be fine to use {vI-} with {-'eghmoH}.
Though I can't find any canon examples of {-'eghmoH} with an
overt direct object or a corresponding prefix, the paq'batlh
does contain an example of {-chuqmoH} with an overt object:

Qo'noS tuqmey muvchuqmoH qeylIS
Kahless united the tribes of Kronos (paq'batlh p.179)
