can you sign a guy to be your player coach and pay him the minimum for the player part and like 10 mil for the coach part and not have the coach part count against the cap?

No. Player-coaches are not allowed under any circumstances.

This question comes up a lot. I bwt your follow-up question is going to be "well, what if they retire and just take a coaches salary? That way, they get their money, and the team gets a luxury tax reprieve."
You can probably guess the answer to that, too.
