It would of course work, for ALT and Chaos it does not really make a difference. However, it is important to note that Azure AppGw is a regional service, unlike Azure Front Door which is a global service. This means that AppGw is not a global load balancer, and traffic can only be redirected or failed over to another stamp within the same region. Or when AppGw is part of the SU (which I would probably prefer) you need a DNS-based solution to failover like for example Azure Traffic Manager (with its own pros/cons). But the same exercise Martin demo'ed would of course also work for a single region only.
Does the tooling you demonstrated in this video also work with application gateway instead of front door?

@@heoelri Thanks for your comments. Can you please clarify what you mean by SU?
Interesting and found to be useful one..
