Yup, it's OK.

By definition, there can be only no primary charge group, or one
primary charge group. I have a dim memory of a recentish precedent on
overall charges comma too many different ones. There may be
restrictions on tertiaries, but I'm not sure either. But several
groups of secondary charges, no prob.
"Argent, a chevron gules, in base a lozenge azure, a canton vert, a
chief sable" is fine (and rather attractive, if I do say so myself).
It has three groups of secondaries (each with one charge each). I
think you could cram a bordure in there too, and a base.
Danyll "'Azure, a chevron argent charged with three escallops gules,
between three lozenges Or each charged with a mullet azure, on a chief
Or a fleur-de-lys vert between two lions sable' might be a touch too
agressively Tudor" de Lyncoln
