I don't see why it would not work, make sure to disturb,rake or work the soil a bit, so to get good seed contact, ought to fill back in with what you want. Spot patching is good practice in a small field or wherever feasible because those are where weeds or undesirable plants may start to grow. We have a small field, about 7 acres and I have often weeded it by hand, just to keep things from getting out of control. Might do the same as you did, oats will come up with just some soil contact, and adequate water, I've had a whole field come back in a wet summer, from what the combine left behind and what seemed to grow back, if not for the weather it could have been harvested again, much less yield, but surprisingly no weeds.
Same field has be in oats the last 3 years, and last year the oats did not come up as high, I think he omitted fertilizer when they sprayed 2-4D for weeds, so they did not shade out the soil enough and soon after they were ripe, a thick grass like weed took over. Was a hot dry summer too. When oats get too tall, they will eventually lean, and we had to put these guard extensions on the combine grain head, to pick em up, but the straw yield is much better, so is the shading of weeds.
