Form fields and merge fields are mutually exclusive.

Use a "roll-your-own" equivalent to mailmerge that makes use of a template
that contains docvariable fields in place of mergefields and use code to
iterate through the data source, creating a new document from the template
for each record and setting the values of variables in the document to the
data from the record and then updates the fields so that the data is
displayed in the docvariable fields.

This procedure can be done with the template containing formfields and
protected for Filling in Forms.
