That may or may not work, depending on your version of GS.

GS 8.14 expects those names to be the Postscript names internal to the TT
fonts and changing them will mis-lead GS about which font is in which file
(and will cause the font lookup to fail).

OTOH, GS 8.53 does not seem to care and happily uses the font with whatever
name you declare.

What you can do in all GS versions, however, is to *alias* the names :
/Arial /ArialMT ;
/Arial,Bold /Arial-BoldMT ;
