I've dried lemon and lime *slices*, but not whole fruit. Should work
fine though.

When we have a glut of such stuff, we freeze a few whole, grate the rind
of the rest (and dry some rind as well) and squeeze the juice to freeze.
The frozen lemons/limes thaw out somewhat soft (so not good for slicing)
but good for juice and rind.
