    In general you can use all User I/Os, although there may be placement restrictions such as different Bank IO Voltage, dedicated functionality, Dual purpose pins for programming etc.

    Enter your pinning in Quartus II and compile your design to validate it.

    Why not? Pins are made to be used in design, what's the other purpose they could have? :)
