I think that depends upon what you mean by valid.

For example, it might be possible to skip over the bad area of the volume and
restore some files past that bad area.

If it were me, I have to say that I would indeed be treating the whole job as
suspicious. And the others too, probably.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Perhaps the volume is actually fine and
the problem is something else.

Rather than doing a restore, maybe it would be worth running commands like
'bls' on the volume first. It would probably give a quicker diagnosis, if
there is a problem.
