If you are very lucky and you get a gearing you like with a very even chain tension that starts off tight all round (no loose spots) if would be fine.
However, that is very unlikely. Maybe just me but I am very particular with my gearing on single speed (down to fine tuning with 1 tooth increments on chainring so can't personally put up with a gearing that is not ideal just because it works for a magic gear.
