Unfortunately no, the relevant line of dialogue is in the first episode, and is actually one of the first things Hero says. At 4:15 in my raw, which may differ slightly from the one that's posted on CR:
勇者「なんで魔王が女なんだよ！？」 "Why is the Demon (Whatever) a woman?"
魔王「伝統的な称号なのだからしょうがない」 "It's a traditional title; it wasn't my decision."
(Again not pulling that TL off of the CR final so it may differ slightly.)
If you use Demon Queen that first line becomes "Why is the Demon Queen a woman?" Which doesn't really work as well as it might.

That is impossible to work around?!?
"Why is the Demon Lord a woman?"
and then go with "Demon Queen" from there on. You seriously think that calling an obvious woman "Demon King" is a proper solution? *blinks*
Well, I should watch the episode first, but I'm inwardly cringing already.
