Yes, it's feasible.
I've posted one thread in the year 2014, to guide others to install Deepin on customized LVM+LUKS partition scheme. But unfortunately, it is written in Chinese.
However, the whole process is not very complicated, in four parts:
1. Create and prepare your partition scheme, and mount your partitions to some mountpoint (in Live CD environment).
2. Extract the whole Deepin system (*.squashfs files in Deepin ISO image) to your target mounted in Step 1.
3. Chroot and perform some necessary settings (root password, add users, include crypto modules in initramfs, set up fstab, etc.)
4. Install Grub boot code, and update grub configurations.

As I'm always on the move it's needed for me to have my data on my laptop encrypted.
I did some testing with Deepin and I really like the way the OS works. But it seems that there is no way to install Deepin with some sort of disk encryption, in the installation the LVM+LUKS partitioning is not possible, which is ok, as long as I can encrypt my home directory. But as soon as I encrypt the home directory I'm not able to login anymore (it just returns back to the login screen).
Is there way to use Deepin with some sort of disk encryption?
