I cannot think of an instance where blood clot could be an adjective. If you're talking about the action of blood clotting than that is a verb, and if you're referring to this is the past you could say "the blood clotted" but that is still not an adjective and sounds somewhat awkward. Clot (noun) - a coagulated mass, or substance adhering together Clot (verb) - to become or form a clot (clotted, clotting)

Hi,

It's possible,
but . . .
He has a blood-clotted nose sounds awkward.
His nose is clotted with blood sounds more natural.
