I should probably clarify my question.

What I mean is, if you have a hidden server with one or more hidden 
services, connected via obfs2 bridge protocol to a set of tor bridge 
relays running obfuscated bridge ports, can you choose a set of entry 
guards for each bridge relay for additional protection?

It may seem I'm over-engineering this to extreme levels of paranoia, but 
I'm not. I'm pretty sure there's more I could do.

Thank you in advance, and thank you for your time.
