Is editing a driver's *.inf possible?

i would suggest you start by trying to get windows to successfully install and load your driver on an already running system.

I can't install Windows if it doesn't detect any harddisk which could be used for installation.
If I install it with the default Microsoft driver and install the vendor driver on the running system, Windows will unload its own driver, which leads to an instant BSOD since the boot device becomes inaccessible.
I can only load the vendor driver during Windows setup, since WinPE is running from a RAM drive and losing access to the harddisk will not crash it.
