Yes. Like you can do PotD to floor 50 before doing Tam-Tara hard. Or like you can still do your 30-50 dragoon quests during the climax of the dragonsong war. Or how you can still cook for the Sultana while she's presumed dead. Does that change the story or lore? Not one bit - just as they aren't doing it right now. It's a time bubble - these things happened during the patches they were introduced in, they don't happen when you actually do them. Tam-Tara (Hard) happens before PotD, whether you do that dungeon or not. The dragoon questline happens before Heavensward, whether you do it or not.
As I said, it's like reading a later book in a series before the prior ones - reading the second before the first does not change the first, nor does it contradict it.

And my apologies, but if you have to artificially construct edge cases in which you might notice skipping, that pretty much proves the point that you really won't notice it at all.
