It will work, but the 3BXL Sup will boot in 3B mode. After you do
all the copying, cleaning and so on, you’ll need to remove the 3B
and reboot the 3BXL.

BTW, if you plan to run on one Sup only, you can actually move
the 6748 into the vacant Sup slot to use power reserved anyway for
Sup and keep other slots free. But it will also influence the 
config (interface numbering).
