I haven't had to try it myself, but I'd be at least tempted to tighten
the nut with the spanner & key to roughly half torque - then finish with
a socket & a torque wrench - hoping the stud wouldn't try to turn
further.
Alternatively, you can do it using both a spanner & a socket torque
wrench. Put the spanner on the nut, then a tightened nut & bolt say in
the opposite end of the spanner with the torque wrench also on that nut
& bolt. It can be a bit unwieldy, but it works because the torque is the
same anywhere along the length of the leaver. The same trick is useful
for a limited access problem, if you really care that much about the
torque.
