You're always better off with an OEM part, but the answer is yes -- you can run into compatibility problems. There are also some systems in which you cannot replace just the screen -- but rather need to replace the entire screen assembly (it is not uncommon for the screen to be glued in rather than mounted removably on newer systems -- particularly those with slim screen bezels).
Since most suppliers won't take back LCDs once you open the box, choose carefully.
