Sure - also the other way round is possible, first contribute to OOo
and then commit the same code to LO - with the joint copyright
assignment you don't loose your own rights, you are free to submit
your code under whatever licence terms you please.

You never loose the copyright, you just assign the same rights you
have on your code to Oracle as well, additionally.
