What your are suggesting is what mono imagers have being doing for some time. LRGB, and the method does give better SNR's with colour images.

However as the luminance data contains not just Ha Oiii etc, but the full visible spectrum, you will not get the data you can only obtain by isolating these wavelengths by using an appropriate filter.
