I'd be really careful about this - the restriction against shorting your stock usually has nothing to do with which account you do it in. At least for the times I've been under similar restrictions, the account wouldn't have made a difference. This is similar to the rules that would apply to insider trading - you can't get your spouse to do the hedge for you either......
+1 the prohibition is on you shorting your own stock, not shorting it in the same account as your options.
