Hello Bosslady,
Yes, you could do that.
I find that using an HDMI to HDMI or
HDMI (laptop) to
DVI (TV) connection (if available) between the laptop and TV works best.
You may also wish to set the laptop to only display on the TV. It will return automatically to just the laptop when you disconnect the TV.
Hope this helps,
Shawn
