Brief Answer:
They do not interact

Detailed Answer:
Both are safe and they do not interact except they both work on pain. They are not 24 hr drugs. On the one hand, taking them once a day will not produce an overdose, on the other hand you are unlikely to get 24 hrs of benefit from either separate or together.
Personally, I get stomach irritation from the diclofenac but that's under 15 % of people.
