It will work, but the short segments will be of lower visual quality and will likely be a different bitrate, because they are an extra generation of encoding away from the original so the encoder will have to try to re-encode additional artifacts.

Try it and see how bad the changes are - maybe you won't notice, maybe you can live with them, or maybe there will be too much degradation for you.

Another thing you could try is boost the quality/bitrate for those short segments to try and compensate.

This is basically how many "lossless" editing software works when it has to cut in the middle of a GOP.
