An Immediate action and an Opportunity Action

If I have an Immediate Action and an Opportunity Action triggered by a same trigger, can I use both?

For example, now after the update, Agile Opportunist feat allows me to use an immediate reaction to make a melee basic attack when pulled, pushed, or slid into a square adjacent to an enemy. And Moradin's Blessing of Iron (Divine Boon) allows me to make a melee basic attack as an opportunity action If an enemy pulls me and that pull leaves me adjacent to that enemy.

So, if an opponent pulls me to a square adjacent to it, can I use my Opportunity Action to make one melee basic attack against that enemy, then use my immediate reaction to make another melee basic attack?

I can't find any mention which says I cannot. But correct me if I am wrong.

AFAIK, there is no restriction against using the same trigger to invoke multiple actions. You only get one OA per turn and one Immediate action between your turns, but there's no reason I can think of that you couldn't get both.

I have seen this happen in play, before, when a Warlord used Viper's Strike (grants an ally an OA if the target later shifts) on an enemy marked by the Fighter (Combat Challenge grants an Immediate Interrput attack if the marked enemy shifts), and the DM allowed it.
 

Yeah, this isn't too unusual an occurrence, and as mentioned it tends to come up quite often with Fighters - an adjacent marked enemy making a ranged attack against another target is a common one - and the general consensus is that you can take both actions, and choose which order you take them in.
