What does seem to be somewhat standardized are circular grommet inserts. There are several popular sizes. But, there are common ones. And being circular, you are just matching one dimension (diameter) instead of 2 for a rectangle (LxW).
Search Amazon for "grommet power outlet" for examples of what I'm talking about. You can pick a size/diameter that works well for you. Then cut one or multiple holes at once for your desk. Each hole can be covered with a clean, blank plastic insert when it's not being used.
In addition to dropping in a AC/USB power adapters, these holes have a few other functions. One popular option are using them for cable management. Having a few tidy holes allows you to drop cables below to the underside of your desk. Another option is to attach monitor arms/stands. While you can usually clamp these onto the backside of your desk, another option is to clam the monitor stand through the grommet hole.
TL;DR: This probably works fine. But using a similar option that fits a circular grommet hole might be better long term.
