Thereʼs nothing stopping you from doing that locally:
(with-temp-buffer
(activate-input-method "TeX") ;; the input method has to be triggered for `quail-package-alist' to be non-nil
(let ((quail-current-package (assoc "TeX" quail-package-alist)))
(quail-define-rules ((append . t))
("\\lll" ?⋘))))
(I donʼt use the TeX input method, so I canʼt judge if doing that by
default makes sense, although adding it as an alternative seems
relatively harmless.)
