I doubt anybody will publicly condone doing that, but it will work. But make sure it doesnt Fall off. Things is (and i know very little about these things) that those wires send the signal back at 5V but it's designed to receive only 3.3 - what happens to the board (or the bltouch) if it is jolted with too high a voltage i cannot tell you.
Which reminds me, first measure the resistor to verify 240Ohm, Second when attached measure again (on the conectors) if the resistance is indeed 240Ohms between the pins.
The kit i Got (supposedly original but….) had two resistors one ten ohm and one two-forty i gather using the wrong one would be bad.
