I think these skinks would be keepable in Qld with the right setup and if the owner went to enough trouble. That said you might have difficulty even finding them in the hobby as this She-oak species, Cyclodomorphus casuarinae,are endemic to Tasmania.
If you wanted to keep similar animals you would be much better off trying to get the Mainland She-oak Skink, Cyclodomorphus michaeli or Pink Tongued Skinks, C.gerrardi. Both are more readily available and would do much better in a Qld climate.
 
Great Skinks Tas. Kept them when i was in Tassie, have to admit they rivaled my blueys pretty well :D

No worries they seem like awesome skinks. I reckon if you've got a relatively cool house and use deep coir peat you might be able to get away with it but I'd seek better advise than me.
