To answer the question directly, Fusion Monsters cannot be used as Fusion Materials for another Fusion Summon, as the materials listed on a Fusion Monster card must be sent to the Graveyard to Fusion Summon it, and Fusion Monsters themselves cannot be sent to the Graveyard as Fusion Materials. The process of Fusion Summoning requires specific monsters to be used as materials, and these are typically non-Fusion Monsters that are listed on the Fusion Monster card.
