They'd only be able to fire when the props are in the hover position. As displayed in the Drive link. 5th photo down.

All Hellfire derivatives so far are rail-launched. You'd have to develop a new version with an ejector. I don't think you could model airflow reliably with a tilt-wing/rotor to trust separation with a simple gravity drop launch.
Plus, you'd get a lot of bent fins trying to drop those top two on the quad rack.
