Is it possible to make one big location layer and get SC to spawn a unit anywhere in the layer other than the center?

You could move a smaller location in that location on a moving unit, otherwise I do not think you can.

You could also use the random burrowed method.
Randomly place Burrowed units for a nutreal player and center a location on the burrowed unit in the huge location, the location will center on a different unit almost every time.

If you don't remove the units I'm pretty sure it always picks the top left one.
One thing you could do is place a large number of other units, then place the unit you want and then remove the other units. The new unit will be somewhere near the center, but not exactly.

I'd recommend A of s t's method. Just have it so there is a preserved "give 1 burrowed unit to another neutral player" and once the second neutral player has them all, give them all back to the first neutral player and repeat. Just center the location whenever it is used on a unit owned by the first neutral player.
And like bolt said, looking up some stuff on gridding may be of use to you
