The arguments to try_files are prefixed with the current $document_root
before being sought as files (with the final argument being magic).

So if you put your to-be-served file in the correct place, and use the
variables correctly, then it should Just Work.

  try_files /tiles/${arg_z}_${arg_x}_${arg_y}.png @fallback;

You might want to wrap that in a "location = /data {}" block.
