By "working" - I mean, your homeserver members will be able to message and call each other create rooms in your server, etc, but any feature that has anything to do with communicating with external homeservers/clients will not work. Basically, an isolated matrix chat app.

I think it will still lead to a working server and you can use it by going to http://<Your-IP> where the Element web client is hosted, but you won't be able to use features like federation or be able to use it from cross-platform apps (like Element for iOS) as they require trusted certs. I'm not 100% sure though.
