    Actually you would need a GFCI dimmer/recpetacle if you want to meet code. I have not seen this set up. You could install a GFCI duplex receptacle and then a light switch tap for the dimmer. This would require a deep 4x4 box or more depending on the heat requirements of the dimmer. They can give off heat and have specific requirements for box sizes.
