If we want to drop handshake keys, it has to be coordinated with the peer in a standard way. For example, we could update the spec and say that handshake keys are expected to be dropped after the first 1RTT ack has been received (client side) or the first 1RTT-protected packet has been received (server side). That will work because it compels both peers to do implicit acks. But without stating that in the standard, no, you cannot do it.
