That is a very good approach to make, it promotes the idea of not just sticking to the "Kubo's Word is Law" paradigm, though at the same time, it is important to not go too far away from how Kubo intended things. But yes. That is the long way of saying yes, you're welcome to use the Douhaku for Mukei.

Additionally, I'd like to provide some small words from my point of view. My main piece of advice for going ahead with this is to consider what the purpose of a particular martial art is. For example, Taekwondo was derived from many situations. One such thing is its predecessor, Taekkyon, which promoted the use of kicks because due to the mountainous terrain of Korea, they developed strong legs to trek those lands. Taekwondo itself, when General Choi modernized its art form, emphasized the concept of "one strike is all it takes to win". And there's more as well. Now, if you plan to use Douhaku, I'm assuming that Mukei is more of a hard-type martial artist then. And if that is the case, you may wish to consider Bajiquan; a chinese martial art that focuses on explosive power with compact movements. It is also one of the rare ones that utilizes elbows in its fighting style.

If you go for this, and considering Douhaku will be used, you may also wish to consider giving Mukei the use of "Hakkei". If Neijing is about the projection of force through a substance, such as Ikkotsu, Hakkei is the act of "exploding" force upon contact. Bleach actually demonstrated this once. If you recall, Kyouraku used the "Tsukiyubi" technique on Chad, which tapped him with two fingers and caused a slight compact "pulse" of force which sent Chad flying. This was, in my personal and expert opinion, a Hakkei technique. And you might want to start with having Mukei elaborate on the Tsukiyubi and maybe even invent variations of it.

Just some ideas to help get you started if you didn't have a plan already.
