Reflexive encoded by case-stacking?

Hi!

Does any conlang (or natlang) encode reflexives by adding two
case-endings?  E.g.

   nominative:   -as
   accusative:   -or

Assuming SOV:

   'Peter loves Mary'    =  'Peteras Maryor love.'
   'Peter loves himself' =  'Peterasor love.'
                         or 'Peteroras love.'
