If the speed rating is the same Z on both fronts and rears then is it ok to have a different branded pair on the front then the rears?

I have Michelin Pilot Sports on all 4 right now but the rears need to be replaced but the fronts are still nice. I don't really need to spend 600 plus right now for a set of rears so I am considering buying a different brand of rears.
