Default Different battery voltage when using 2 batteries for retracts/receiver

I'm setting up an aircraft with mech retracts and would like to use different batteries for the receiver and retract servo. I'll be using a Y connector with the center wire removed from the plug at the receiver gear socket and a switch and battery on 1 leg and the retract servo on the other leg. Can I use a 6 volt battery for the receiver and a 4.8 battery running the servo?

Thanks,

Chris
