Consider the following scenario:
I I bring 2x 10 Tactical Squads, armed with 2 Plasma Gun, 2 Plasma Cannon and 1 Combiplas total in Rhinos as dedicated Transports.
I see my opponent has 2 Baleflamer Heldrakes with Baleflamers sitting in reserve - dead cannons very soon.
So could I do some shenanigans like:
Deploy both rhinos within 9" of each other with it's respective combat squads embarked.
From Rhino #1 a Plasma Gun disembarks and moves to within 3" of Rhino #2.
From Rhino #2 a Plasma Cannon disembarks and moves to within 3" of Rhino #1
The disembarked Gun embarks into Rhino #2.
The disembarked Cannon embarks into Rhino #1.
Rhino #2 zooms off to deliver the Plasma Guns and Combiplas into the enemys face.
Rhino #1 remains stationary and allows the 1 Plasma Cannon to fire from a Fire Port with 2 Cannons firing the next turn.
Legal action or not?

Answer is still no. Combat squads count as individual squads and the restriction on transports is clear. The only exception is in the Combat Squad rule and that only applies to Combat Squads from the same original squad.
