Can I run the post-install script once for multiple installations of Oracle database patches?

I have a task to install two Oracle database patches namely: Patch 37532350 and Patch 37499406 for multiple databases that share the same Oracle home directory. I understand that I have to run the post-install script "datapatch" after installing each patch. Since there are two patches, I have to run it twice. My question is: Can I install the two patches, one after another, and then run the script "datapatch" ONCE?

Howdy, Stranger!
