Your state's laws regulating Notaries may address this particular subject - they are all different. However, even if legally allowed such an action COULD raise the specter of a conflict of interest. To avoid such a possibility consider having an un-related Notary perform this duty for you. For what the fee will cost you it is cheap insurance.

A notary cannot notarize any document from which they may derive a benefit. Any notary who has the privilege of being a state notary should be familiar with the state laws that govern notaries.
