It probably can work. I assume that these nonpartisan state commissions (in the states that have given up on the politicized ones) use some sort of mapping that takes into account the various demographics. We know they need to consider population, race, and political party registrations, so I'm sure someone has a program that can account for these and ask the computer to use a strong preference for using natural lines as boundaries, such as county borders or rivers.
