What if we install 4 sets of mecanum wheels and 8 sets of omni wheels on each drive half? Would that give more push power?

I don't think we would try it but what if?

Yes it will give you marginally more pushing power, but only marginally and not enough to be worth the extra weight and system drag.

Up date to this post:
we used this drive system for our 2010 robot and it did well. in pushing matches it did make a difference, we were able to hold our own. The suspension worked great for the humps of the soccer game.
you can view the completed robot at http://team1322.org/ideas.htm
