My first thought was that a coup d'etat is
unconstitutional on its own. Officers would
violate their oaths if they participated in
a coup d'etat.

I found several places that think so too; on
the unconstitutional nature of a coup d'etat.

From answers.com:

Actually a coup d'etat is just a name for an
unconstitutional overthrow of a legitimate
government by a small group of the state establishment.....

This can be, but doesnt have to be the military.
