Yes that is a perfectly viable. If you do not intend to use the Google 
PlayStore you don't need a Google signed attestation key. Note, however, 
that the attestation certificates issued by keymaster are checked by the 
applications' service back ends. So if you allow apps from third parties 
which use key attestation, their back ends may not trust your certificates 
and reject the attestation certificates issued by your keymaster 
implementation. You may need to negotiate with these vendors to white list 
your CA. But if you control all of the apps it is up to you which CAs to 
trust.
