Default Compression ratio of 10.5:1 and 91 octane???

If I had a compression ratio of about 10.4 or 10.5:1, could I use 91 octane or atleast 94 octane (only 2 higher octanes available in my area)?

ok thanks alot guys that answers my question.
And as far as tuning I guess timing is the main one in order to prevent detonation with such high compression. But im using the stock cam so (z6 and y8 head/y8 cam) fuel shouldnt be affected.
BUt ill do my research on the tuning aspect of my build...thanks again
