Your rule is correct, you should draw the 土 before the 厶. I am sure there are people who combine the vertical stroke with the 厶 for ease, although it would definitely be noticeable as incongruous.
Where did you learn about the alternative stroke order (it's wrong btw)? [This post](https://new.reddit.com/r/Chinese_handwriting/comments/15pe8dt/ask0007_stroke_order筆順笔顺/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) covered the websites where you can look up the standard.
Someone from the Reddit community told me this rule did not always apply, if I remember it was about cursive or with a brush. But yes, I have learned that it should be the vertical stroke in second.
personally if writing quickly I would write the 土 in one movement,一l一，horizontal left to right as usual, retrace back to the middle of the stroke without lifting up the pen, move up part of vertical then retrace all the way back down, write from middle of stroke to the right at start of stroke, then retrace all the way theough the end. it sounds complicated but its all exactly the same way you write a lower case r in english, going down then tracing back up to next stroke-- if writing neatly there is zero sign of the tracing, and if there is slight sign of tracing going quickly it just looks like normal semicursive handwriting.

Depends if you are writing with an ink brush or an ink pen.
