Is it ok to use lower resolution LCD in my notebook?

Display on my notebook isn't working properly and I would like to swap it for a new one, but only lower resolution displays are available.
Is it ok to use that lower resolution display?

Are you plugging in a different display over hdmi(or otherwise)

or tearing apart the laptop and putting a new display in?
