I have a shower only that needs a new valve. Can I use a tub/shower valve and just plug the tub spout fitting?

Single handle control. I can get tub/shower combinations that I like on clearance @ Menards but the shower only ones aren't the style I like. If I plug the bottom outlet it'll work just like if the spout lever was lifted, right? Any reason this won't work?

    It will work. It has nothing to do with the valve. It has to do with the water lines going to it and the diverter in the spout.
