During the sprouting process the glutens both convert and are converted to other metabolites. This lowers the level of gluten. To be safe all of the alpha-gliadins would need to be converted. Dead spots on the seeds may have partially degraded gliadin which is still poisonous. IOW, In theory it is possibly safe, in practice it would need through examination.
