We present the planar 63Cu nuclear spin-lattice relaxation study of impurity-doped YBa2(Cu1-xMx)4O8 (M=Ni, Zn) at T=4.2-300 K with Cu nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) spin-echo technique. In the light of an impurity-induced NQR relaxation theory, we estimated the host Cu nuclear spin-lattice relaxation time (T1)HOST, the impurity-induced Cu nuclear spin-lattice relaxation time (t1), and the wipeout region around the impurity in the superconducting state. The pseudo spin-gap behavior of the host Cu antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation above Tc is not readily removed by a small amount of the impurity. The Zn-induced non-Korringa behavior of (T1)HOST below Tc is in sharp contrast to the doping effect of the magnetic impurity Ni.
