If you are referring to the database's tables the report will query, then the answer is Yes. If the tables exist and the user has the appropriate privileges on them, you can develop the report (but when running it it will obviously return no data).

What if in the test enviornment you had data, developed the report with selection criteria, and it work. But when you changed the data source to the new production environment, that has no data, and it won’t let you save the report when pointing to the tables in the production enviroment. Why is that?
