Yes BUT they need to be a mix of magic and bow/crossbow that is much more oriented towards magic compared to the regular Hunter.
OR they could make a class that has specs like Demon Hunter (melee+dark magic), Mage Ranger (ranged shooter+magic stuff) and, perhaps, Summoner (more magic, mix of ranged/melee).
Most of these suggestions come from DND (like neverwinter) which has a ton of various classes that Blizz can take an idea from.
