Well, i highly doubt about that, i dont know of any case like that, when 1 unrelated male joined a big 4 or more coalition of related males in nomadic phase (when they are still in a pride it can happen, if the pride accepts unrelated male ). 

Most unrelated coalitions are made of 2 unrelated males, bigger coalitions are rare but it can happen, but then all males are mostly unrelated, or at most 2 brothers and rest unrelated (DeLaportes, Mpondos). 

Related coalitions of 4 or more brothers, usually dont accept any other males, because they dont have any value of him/them.. They already have numbers and that male would only be a competition for food, mating rights etc..

But who knows with Birmingham young male, he is quite an outlier so far.. Reply
