If your tank is 300gals +, maybe.
The argentea would at first be at a disadvantage if the others have been there a while and set up territories. But argentea an get very domineering after they reach about 7 inches, and they don't like other laterally compressed fish with color similar to theirs.
I also believe the oscars and chocolate are not even close to being tough enough to be with argentea.
I had an alpha male constantly pin a large dovii in one corner, and a managuense in another corner of a 150 gal tank (tank was just too small). I had to give the argentea its own tank to save the lives of the others.

No,they are known for be highly aggressive and going murder sprees in tanks less than 300
