Yes.  I have just the UT1 dark blue toner because I used the other
slot for a sepia toner.   It's very subtle in a real print -- just about
invisible.   Not a single person who has seen my prints has ever mentioned
it.  As I don't need quite that much blue color I've been thinking of
mixing a 50/50 of the two blue toners.  This way the dots will be lighter
and there will be more of them which will have a smoothing effect.
