As a chemist by training and a massive fan of 1920s murder mysteries, sure. Just don't ask me to beta. You really don't want that.

In terms of MO, I'd recommend poision. there is the classic foxgloves mixed up with spinach, which might just be put down to an inexperienced valet, really had no business volunteering to help the cook or even a blind butler. Arsenic is also a classic and readily avalible. Unfortunately it's also readily detectable, so Jeeves should possibly steer clear. Cyanide is another option, and if the body is left for a while is undetectable. Ricin would also be an excellent poision choice for Jeeves, through it's difficult to exact. That's just what's off the top of my head. Ask me later and I'll have more.

In terms of co conspirators, it would depend on which part of the plot you want them to help with. I can see Seepings for example helping to move/dispose of the body to avoid a scandal. A parlour maid or kitchen maid might also help. I can see Kipper or Ginger being persauded to move a body, but I can't off the top of my head come up with any one who'd help Jeeves commit murder knowingly. there are plenty of potential catspaws though.

Alibis...depends on what method you decided to use whether an alibi would be needed. For Ricin for example the victim can take weeks to die. FInding an alibi when you don't have a time the act was commited can be very hard.
