You could, though honestly speaking that's not what people use CV(L)s for. They can't perform artillery spotting, and have the big disadvantage of not being able to attack at all when moderately damaged and when at night; they're pretty much for securing air superiority/supremacy in most scenarios. Once you achieve whatever fighter power you need, what you should have are bombers to boost the opening airstrike, or whatever utility recon plane you think you'll need.

Besides, evasion experiences diminishing returns (exact formula is unconfirmed but the currently proposed evasive formula as of 2015/04 as seen here):

When evasive stats  ≦ 37.5: Evasion = Evasive stats / 75  When evasive stats > 37.5: Evasion = Evasive stats / (Evasive stats + 37.5)

Take note this is before accounting for the enemy's accuracy.

In the case you still want to go for that evasion setup, Hiryuu Kai Ni actually hits the soft cap (64*1.5 + 55 = 151) without anything equipped, so you should place the zero fighter-bomber on the lowest slot just for the ability to shell, unless that meagre extra fighter power is really desired.
