An "off-tank" is a character that can successfully tank, just with more difficulty. An "off-healer" is a character that can successfully heal, just with more difficulty. Just how actual tanks have an off-tank stance. They can tank perfectly well in it, but there are times they shouldn't.

What you seem to misunderstand is that by saying "off-tank", "off-support" and similar you suggest a character that could do these roles very well, taking place of the respective "specialists" with only mediocre decrease in ability. Now, if you said "a bit tankier against single foe" or "with some support" no one would have a problem. Dancer is expected to be rather support heavy anyway, no matter the role it will get. But the way you said it implies a character that is simply too good in all these fields. Even if you did not mean that.
