Can I use the bitfolk panel to delegate to a

Yes, delegate wherever you like. Just make sure that the
nameserver(s) you're delegating to are actually serving the zone
first. Should the Panel check for that instead of just letting you
delegate to something that won't work?
You might have it warn if the nameservers don't respond with NS records
for the zone, but I wouldn't have it not allow it. And I *especially*
wouldn't want it to drop the delegation if suddenly it stopped
responding for the zone.
Would there be
a problem using my VPS as the name server?
No.
+1 from me. My VPS's only real role is offsite dns for my own sites. I'm
thinking about setting up a VPN for accessing UK-only sites *cough* but
I haven't done that yet.
