Yes, something like that should be fine. Here is a complete set up on how I would go with 5-4 grinding with a DD:

DD (Flagship): 3 Drums

FBB: 2x 46cm / AP Shell / Seaplane

CAV: 2x SKC34 20.3cm / Seaplane / Drum

FBB: 2x 46cm / AP Shell / Seaplane

CV (Shoukaku-class):  Reppuu (601) / Reppuu / Tenzan (Tomonaga Squadron), or just Ryuusei Kai / SCAMP or 15.5cm Secondary (Saiun is also a decent option)

CV (Shoukaku-class): Reppuu / Reppuu / Ryuusei Kai / SCAMP or 15.5cm Secondary

This set up offers enough firepower to get S-Ranks reliably. Obviously, you can use whatever CVs you want instead of the Shoukaku-class I use, maybe even a CVL but you'd probably have to run one more good Green Plane. However, Toadesstern may be able to offer better composition than I, as he seems to have much more experience than I have in that map.

I'll also provide a set up what I'd use for DD grinding on the first node of 5-4 (the one who gets the MVP doesn't matter with this set up):

DD (Flagship): You can go with whatever equipment you want, the DD will never be getting MVP anyway or doing much.

BB: 2x 46cm (or a 41cm Proto) / AP Shell / Seaplane, or in other words, just about the best equipment you have really

CA(V): The best equipment here too

CV: Reppuu in a high slot to achieve Air Superiority. Rest can be filled with Ryuusei and anything better, then lastly a Saiun.

CVL: 2 Ryuusei or anything better in the highest slots, Type 2 Recon Plane, 15.5cm Secondary (She'll be getting MVP quite often, probably due to that 15.5cm Secondary)

SS: I just use a Maruyu personally. Equipment doesn't matter much, but if you are going with high level SS, use Turbine.

^If you want a certain ship to get MVP, then lower your other ship's equipments. If you want BB to get MVP for example, Tenzan may be a good choice on the CV(L), and don't use a 15.5cm secondary, go with a Radar instead if you want accuracy. Same with CA(V), go with a little bit less effective equipment that what you'd normally use, and the BB will be getting MVP fairly often.
