When doing an open-jaw, can you purchase a one-way paid ticket on another airline, say Alaska, to fly the open-jaw portion?

eg.
BHM-ATL-SFO (open jaw), SEA-ATL-BHM on award. Paid on Alaska, SFO-SEA one-way.

Would this cause any issues with the award ticket? Everything from SFO-SEA seems to be operated by Alaska but with codeshares for AA and DL. Better to purchase ticket from AA?
You could also use 7500 BA Avios to book that Alaska segment if you want.
