"it depends"
That will be the best answer I can give, but really it all depends on your situation. I am sure others can give you their thoughts.
For me i run 2 laptops 24x7 and have done so since early June without issue.

I would say, keep a close eye on the CPU & GPU temps since mining will boost the temps, especially the GPU. Battery charging adds to the heat also! Would recommend an extra laptop cooler if temps seem high. I actually have an extra laptop cooler sitting on my desktop rig; adds to the LED colors and was not using it anyway.
