I guess it would seem right if spoken. I would prefer using 'Maybe he's right'.

If all you want to do is say he's right, adding maybe (not may be) somewhere, then place it first.
Maybe he's right.
If you think of the maybe idea later, you can pause when speaking, and say maybe later.
He's right. -------- Maybe. (This stands for: He's right. ----- Well, maybe he's right.)
