No. The requirement to play the card is to Spot Gandalf and four twilite. If you can't do that, you can't play it at all.

We're going by these:

Quote from: CR, cost

You must meet any requirements to play a card (or perform an action) before paying its costs. (See spot.)

Quote from: CR, spot

The word spot sets up a requirement for playing a card or using a special ability in conjunction with a noun such as, "To play, spot an Elf."

The twilight cost is (thankfully) an honest-to-goodness cost, but spotting Gandalf and

are both requirements. You don't play DiT and then attempt to spot those.

Gwaihir: The cost of the card is spotting Gandalf and

and adding an additional

. The effect is discarding all Shadow conditions.

Look at it this way:
1. Spot requirements (spot Gandalf and

at a time when it is your turn to perform a Maneuver phase action).
2. Pay costs (add

more and discard Deep in Thought from hand).
3. Perform effects (discard all Shadow conditions).
