Can we cut to the chase? Cold can be defined as an absence of heat because we have a specific and useful definition of what heat is. Darkness can be defined as the absence of light because we have a specific and useful definition of what light is.
However, "good" and "evil" are both nebulous and amorphous concepts, whose definitions change from person to person and from culture to culture. If you're going to define "evil" as the absence of "good", you'd have to first provide a working, useful, standard definition of "good".
