The answer to this question is no, as killing Gravelord Nito will prevent you from becoming a Gravelord Servant, and if you are already a Gravelord Servant, killing him will force you to leave the covenant. To become a Gravelord Servant, you must join the Gravelord Covenant by going to the Catacombs and following the main path to find the coffin that allows you to join.
