You could definitely do this. But personally I would use a neutral bittering hop and save the mosaic till later in the boil to get the full use of its flavor and aroma profile.

If you are wanting to do a partial mash, I would cut the carapils out completely, and add 3# pale malt.
If I'm doing the math right in my head it should give you an OG of around 1.055.

I personally would not use more that 12oz of c20. You could add 4oz of honey malt for a little more sweetness if that's what your looking for.

If it was mine, i would drop the pilsner malt.
As far as the hops go i would move the 45 min addition up to 5 min and move the 30 min up to 15 min or less.
