I can see doing this on occasion, but I would be cautious as I don't see it being healthy to remove the good mucous the body produces to protect the sinuses.
I would consult with an ENT doctor first, but here is a snippet from an internet search I just did.
"Start by performing just one irrigation a day. If the rinse is helping, you can irrigate your nose up to three times a day. But nasal rinses should not be used as a preventive measure when you don’t have symptoms. It won’t prevent sinus issues and can cause infections to develop.

Your sinuses and nasal passages are lined with good mucus — it traps the irritants and germs that enter your nostrils and can kill some bacteria. Regular flushing can hinder those protective features and increase the risk of infection."
