Uneven Stand Top

Can I fill up those area with wood filler? And then set the 3/4 plywood on top

Filler isn't structural. You could however, fill any gap AFTER making sure the top was flat.

all the edge are level, but the top is kinda bow a bit at one corner. It may create a little gap undernearth the new top that I put on. That’s what I’m a bit concerning
The pic below, it is not a gap at the edge

This is a eurobrace tank yes? No bottom trim? If so, then the foam mattress you have should take care of this no problem.

Rimless, no bottom trim, but not eurobrace

Same diff. You should be just fine. If it does indeed still haunt you, I would use a harder filler like Bondo to fill the low spot. Sanding and a nice straight edge would confirm that you were then bang on flat.
A 1/6" hollow in an area away from the edges, in conjunction with the aforementioned mat, should handle this with no issues.

Thank you for the info
