Optimal response occurs when the pole pieces are aligned under the strings. It would work in the sense it would create sound. Whether that sound is pleasing to you depends on your ears. It would not be pleasing to me as I care significantly about balancing string to string output.

thanks kindness. so much for my idea of putting a 4 string neck on my 5 string bass :p

just one of those silly ideas, I've got a 5 string bass I don't like the neck on, I've got a 4 string bass with a lot of issues, thought maybe I could mix and match

what if I moved the pickup over so the pole pieces lined up?

poomwah, I suggest you slow down... if you hadn't even realised that your neck pocket wouldn't reasonably accommodate a 4 string neck without bodgeing it, judgeing by your threads, I hate to think the money you might waste.
