Default Headlight Bulb Question

My low beam went out on the driver side of my '04 TSX. I tried a new bulb and it didn't work so I decided to actually diagnose it and it was a bad ballast. I replaced the ballast and it worked...for a month or so. Now it doesn't work again and it looks like the new ballast is bad.

My question is this: Can I replace the high beam bulbs with low beam bulbs so I can just drive with those? I don't have a need to have high beams anyway. The high beams are just regular bulbs and not HID like the lows.
