Have any CPUs pipelined ALU ops at sub-word granularity? E.g. start computing low output bits before the high input bits are known.

You don't know where the low bit is until you do carry propagation in floating point. Very different from integer arithmetic.

You can do something sorta like this if you're willing to accept handwavy rounding by just keeping a few extra bits around.
