Can I place plants that prefer indirect light under a grow lamp? (self.gardening)

Hello all, A few months ago I transferred about 12 bromeliad pups to their own pots and they are taking up a lot of room. I wanted to move them to my indoor greenhouse cabinet with pink grow lamps. I know that they are meant for indirect light so I am wondering if its a bad idea to give them exposure to LED lamps.

It would be useful to know this for all "indirect-light" plants.

Thanks!

Keep the lights further away from the plant if it needs less light. The further away, the less intense the exposure will be.
