Sure it can work, even toplane Soraka as offtank mage works, but it's not as strong as meta picks or Soraka as she is meant to play. Another example for this is AP Ezreal. While he is mostly played as AD caster on bot or midlane, he has AP scalings on all of his spells, even good ones and a few seasons ago AP Ezreal indeed was meta, but it's not as popular anymore, because he had big disadvantages, like poor waveclear or the lack of damage without using his E offensive, that others were easily too advantage of. AD Katarina right now is in the same state, definitly possible to play, but with a couple of disadvantages that AP Kat doesn't have and that's the dependence on AA's and the lack of item synergy.
