never done it myself but plenty of charvels (like stars, explorers) have been done with neck-plate mounted strap buttons, and I've never heard about issues. I can't imagine why it would be "unsafe". just make sure you use a screw that's extended by the same length as the strap button adds.
you could imagine something happening if, for example, you threw the guitar and caught it by the strap, which would yank the bolt. the worst thing I could think of in that scenario is potentially pulling the neck out of alignment. but even that seems really really unlikely, as you're only apply force to one of four bolts.
