Each and every

can we use each and every as an determiner modifying one word?

for example: each and every members of the class.

and also what about this expression 'these and those'?

for example: these and those books.

is this right form in usage?

so, can we use more than two of all determiners modifying one word and connect with conjunction like 'and' ?
