It should work just the same as any other step/dir gantry system.

It sounds like an expensive experiment compared to adding another
Xylotex drive to your existing system, assuming similar voltage and
current specifications in the drives and torque/speed curves of the
motors.
Gecko drives may be superior to Xylotex, but the differences are
likely to be minor, you still have a stepper system with the
compromises that entails.
