Yes (and it wasn't Ike, it was guitarist Willie Kizart performing WITH Ike on "Rocket 88").
Goree Carter's "Rock Awhile" had used the technique a couple of years earlier, and Joe Hill Louis' "Boogie in the Park" had done so the previous year.
Carter and Louis appear to have overdriven and distorted the sound intentionally; Kizart's may have been accidental (the amplifier he was using had been damaged in transport).

Should you place the distortion or overdrive box before or after the wah pedal when setting up a guitar rig?
most players do either, theres no 'right way' just like no right way to play the guitar itself...each give a slightly different sound. The function of a distortion pedal is similar to the preamp gain stages in a regular guitar amp. All of the classic wah sounds were produced in this manner: 1. guitar 2. wah 3. guitar amp 4. speakers If you put the distortion first, you will not get the classic wah sound. In addition, every guitar multi-FX processor made puts the wah before the overdrive/distortion in the FX chain. Many of these processors put the overdrive/distortion AFTER the preamp gain stage which is in the effects loop of a typical guitar amp. You would start at your guitar and go guitar-distortion-wah-amp. Because you want to wah a distorted signal, not distort a wah. If you distort the wah, you're not really getting the right effect. It makes a big difference.

Can you hook lead guitar directly to the mixer and then back to its own guitar box?
Yes, but the 'lead guitar' sound (with distortion and other effects) won't be heard at the mixer. You will do better to connect a line out (if it has one) or mic the guitar amplifier to get the tone of the speaker plus any distortion or overdrive you need.
