'Recycling' your tax free lump sum back into a pension to get tax relief again is prohibited by HMRC. (Any pension has a declaration that you need to sign to confirm that your contributions haven't come from a pension lump sum).
However there's nothing stopping you living off that lump sum, and moving money from your own personal savings into a people's pension or similar.
