Is there a proper use of "stimuluses"?

Typically, one would use the plural form of the word stimulus as in ”...responding to stimuli”. Could there be a (scientific or technical writing) context in which one could properly replace “stimuli” with “stimuluses”?
Consider the case where you need to describe one response to a series of individual stimuluses (?) versus the case where one might describe one response to a suite of stimuli.
Maybe there is another word completely that might describe this without the drawn out explanation and make this paper more succinct?
