You don't need the specific roles. You can solo this game using a bit of creativity so you definitely can have 4 of any role in your party. Remember, food heals, potions are frequently found, and anyone can use scrolls. This can cover the healer and mage type roles easily. If you like ranged and stealth play, you don't need a tank role, just use some tactical positioning and brains. If you prefer the tank role you might need someone for extra dps (haven't tried solo tank yet so not sure) but this someone can most likely be any class. For traps and locks, just have someone with sleight of hand and perception. Not getting into the party number debate, combat turns are already painfully slow even with soloing.

I am glad games are getting away from the forced roles, there is more fun to be had, imo, in a non traditional party.
