I've heard the idea tossed around and I think it's an interesting one. The specific academy Tooru went to was where most "problem children" were sent (though not all of them were considered so, see: Yasuhisa twins), so he could have been sent there for a reason. While I don't trust Tokage, he does have a nac for finding emotionally troubled students that would be easy scapegoats.

Specifically, I don't trust Tokage's perspective in that Tooru was legitimately a "bad kid", but I could see him being very troubled early on, but calmed down over the years. Tooru's past is still unclear, but dead family plus gender identity issues as a teenager is a prefect formula for mass emotional turmoil in of itself. His classmates also seemed to know that he was transgendere and gave have him flak for it.

So a "dark side" of some sort I think is totally plausible for his character.
