No, it will not hurt. What's more important is the viscosity (weight) and your drain interval. I would not go less than a 10W on the low end of a multi vis product (10W30 or 10W40). I'm not a fan of 5W oils since the base stock is a 5 weight oil, whether its synthetic or dino fortified to behave like a 30 or 40 weight oil at operating temps. The fortification ultimately breaks down over time/usage and the upper end begins to behave like less than 30 or 40 weight. At least with 10W, your floor is higher than a 5W oil.
