It's not clear to me, what you mean with "(only) I/O mode". There are a few dual-purpose pins, that have a dedicated function e.g. for FPGA configuration. If you assign I/O functions to these pins, that are nor compatible with the selected pin configuration, the project won't compile. But you can check the configuration of each pin in the Quartus pinout file.
