Chainline?
Drivetrain forces would be in the same direction as breaking on the disc brake non? IANAP

The disc side on a front wheel has higher tension already because of the dish

Spokes will be fine for the reason given by @umop3pisdn but chain line might be a problem if you're using road cranks, IIRC it's about 52mm if you bolt a sprocket onto a 135mm rear hub. Should be fine with MTB cranks.

135 mm disc hub.
I could buy a cheap deore disc hub and get that built into a rim right, using the iso bolt fix from velosolo.
Would I die, probably it will happen someday, if I used an already built up disc wheel and did the iso bolt fix?
Edit: the wheel will therefore be flipped around won't it?
So any tension to accomodate drive side/non drive side might be the wrong way round.
It's just for commuting to and from work.
