Unless someone has tried that setup on the airplane, the answers are going to all be conjecture. I would think that separate ailerons and elevators would be fine, but who knows for sure.

The best way to test it is make the elevon mix on the outboard sections selectable with a switch - one way they are elevons and the other, only ailerons. Try it up high and see if it works OK...
