mdadm and the linux raid code don't care whether a component device of a raid array is a full disk or a partition of a disk. So your setup won't cause any problems. However, tools like fdisk which expect a partition table might get confused. You also might get some error messages at boot time about invalid partition tables. These are usually harmless though.
