Seems logical to me. "Details" needed to be sure the fan ventilates properly is you will need to supply a sufficient amount of air for the fan to exhaust. If the room is airtight there would be no available air for the fan to remove. So you would need to have air available for the fan to exchange. This air also needs to come from the area where you will be smoking: with the an in/near the ceiling and an air source a few feet away it may not circulate/mix sufficiently to remove the desire smoke. As the real estate people say, "location, location, location."
