Hello. I have this tank. Would it be beneficial to place a wavemaker on the opposite glass panel of the overflow box to allow for no deadzones? The two returns don't create enough flow for the second half of the tank.

You can - but many peninsula owners successfully run their wavemakers on the side with the overflow to avoid unsightly devices and cables. The wavemakers I most often see in these configurations are the Vortech MP40/60s.
 
I have a buddy that has this tank running 2 mp60s on each side of the overflow box. So i agree with @blaxsun 2 mp60s on overflow side maybe offset them one higher one lower
