I think that's a great idea. I can't see why it wouldn't work. Inside is a salmon cake recipes,
I've made. At first glance, it seems very similar. You could always taste and adjust seasonings. I may try it myself! I always use the large cans of salmon with bones for salmon loaf, think I'd go for the smaller boneless cans for this.
Btw, comments at the bottom are by the orginal poster, not mine.

Comments: This recipe was published in Cooking Light. I make it a bit
different than it originally appeared, though (I don't use fat-free
mayonnaise, saltines, etc. and also add some additional ingredients to suit
my taste). If you would like to make the original version, just stick with
the fat-free items and omit the last 4 items in the ingredient list (mayo
through Tabasco) and you will have the original recipe. Prep time includes
20 minutes chilling time for the salmon cakes.
