I'm running static seismic and waterhammer. For the occasional stress load cases is it recommended to combine DWT + OCC(seismic) scalar and DWT + OCC(waterhammer) scalar?

Yes, where DWT is "W+P", or stated another way, your primary stresses should be added to your occasional stresses (using "scalar").
