Yes, it is perfectly safe, the VFD does not communicate with the spindle at all unless it is turned on. Do not - however - attempt to run the VFD without the spindle connected (i.e., dont press the green button unless the spindle is properly connected).
I have never experienced a problem yet testing a VFD without a motor connected.
