In DNS can an IN NS point to a CNAME?

Is it allowed to have an NS record be a CNAME? E.g.:

subdomain.example.com. IN NS ns1.example.com. ns1.example.com. CNAME foo.example.com. foo.example.com. IN A 10.1.1.1

This doesn’t seem to work in bind though this (of course) does:

subdomain.example.com. IN NS foo.example.com. foo.example.com. IN A 10.1.1.1

Any pointers to RFCs prohibiting this setup…
