No, an equation cannot be considered correct if it violates the principle of homogeneity of dimensions. The principle requires that the dimensions on both sides of an equation match, indicating the compatibility of the physical quantities involved. If this principle is violated, it signifies an error or inconsistency in the equation, rendering it incorrect in terms of dimensional analysis.
