I’m going to assume you can pop Invulnerability and avoid the tick of PI, but can you roll/whirlwind/blurred frenzy etc. and dodge the lung explosion?

Clarification: I’m not talking about the attack that applied PI but the delayed impact itself.

No.

Once Pulmonary is on your target, it will ignore blind, evade, block, even range. The ways to really not take the hit will be through invulnerability, damage inversion (ala Defiant Stance), or damage reduction (protection, Endure Pain).
You could technically land a Pulmonary and if you’re quick enough, activate Basilisk Venom for an unblockable/evadeable stun when it pops… Or use your dodge with Evasive Empowerment to increase the damage.
