It will add extra weight, and I don't know how the performance will be. A tubeless tire essentially has rubber (not sure if butyl but prolly or equivalent) bonded to the inside of the tire. Adding another layer of butyl I suspect will affect rolling resistance and performance, and probably not in a good way. It may be a tiny difference, I won't lose any sleep over this. Yet.
