Try it. With actual evolving populations with inherited strategies, and without hard-coding group selection.

Without hard-coding the groups as separate evolving units, you'll have a hard time.

In general, it is easy to show the group behaviors you want if you can treat the group as atomic for the purpose of the model. But you've just moved the goalposts, your 'individuals' are not the unit of evolution any more, and you've simply set the required behavior in the fitness function.

So try it and see.
