In this particular case, the case where the larger Lore says "This thing is rare and forbidden." The wider ideals of Cannon, that of Lore and Public Cannon, would have the keep the rule and public context enforced. So, it would be frowned upon to be outward on the public level about it.
However, in deeper, smaller Canon circles, such a thing could be permissible as an 'exception' to the lore as lore is always established by setting rules and watching the story break those rules, and then explain the reasons in order to expand the lore.
So in this case, being a White Mage is permissible in any group that tolerates or encourages it. Anyone within your Personal Canon circle who's cool with it would be fine, as you're the one in control of who's in your own circle, and of course, Headcannon you pretty much have free reign.
In short, the smaller your circle, the more you can get away with bending or breaking lore. Just be respectful of those who are trying to keep the public light more adherent to it.
