I know the name has common spellings like 秀吉 or 英義 but when I type ひでよし on my laptop I once got 秀代志 as an option as well. Would it work? And why/why not?

Yes, it would work.
As long as there is even the most tenuous logic to how the characters are pronounced a Japanese-style name can be made.
Why 秀代志 works:
- 秀 - ひで ⇒ from the word 秀{ひい}でる
- 代 - よ ⇒ is the kun-yomi for this character
- 志 - シ ⇒ is the on-yomi for this character
