Can I say "I took a test out of 70" to mean that the maximum marks that could be scored was 70 ?

No. It doesn't make sense.
"I took one test out of 70" means that there were 70 tests you could possibly take, and you only did one of them.
Instead, you can say this:
The maximum possible score for the test was 70. I scored 62.
I scored 62 out of 70 on the test.
"I took one test out of 70" means that there were 70 tests you could possibly take, and you only did one of them.
Instead, you can say this:
The maximum possible score for the test was 70. I scored 62.
I scored 62 out of 70 on the test.
