If it's not appropriate for your dialog to be "instant apply", then yes,
it's okay to have different buttons. It may also be appropriate for
some parts of your dialog to be instant apply and others not, although
this is probably the least attractive of the three options.
For more information on deciding what format to use for your dialog,
see:
