Yes, that's fine.

I think that would create a circular dependency, which Kconfig will
refuse. We talked about the USB_ARCH_HAS_* Kconfig symbols recently
and Alan Stern agreed to my suggestion of removing all of them,
reworking the logic so we can always enable USB and EHCI but even
when there is no bus glue enabled.
I'll have to do a proper patch one of these days, or find someone in
my team to do it right for all the corner cases.

It is often safer to express the logic using "depends on" than using
"select", e.g. doing
config USB_EHCI_TEGRA
bool "EHCI support for NVIDIA Tegra"
depends on USB_EHCI_HCD
depends on ARCH_TEGRA
config USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT
def_bool y
depends on USB_EHCI_TEGRA
If USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT has any other dependencies, the best solution
in the above scenario is to make USB_EHCI_TEGRA depend on those.
