Can a cuboid have integer length, breadth and depth, as well as integer
values for the diagonal lengths of the faces?

You mean like sides of 44, 117 and 240. With diagonals of
125, 244 and 267 ?

Exactly! So the answer to the base note is "Yes".
Now:
(1) is there a general formula for these things?
(2) can we find a package where the main diagonal is integral as well?
Regards,
Andrew.
