Hi and welcome to the forums
That should not be an issue using a main window for login even normally a QDialog class
would been used. However, since you do not seems to need the modal feature of QDialog, then
using a main window should be perfectly fine.

Hi and welcome to devnet,

As @mrjj wrote, it should not get you any problem. However, the question would rather be why use a QMainWindow for such a task ? It's not really the correct tool.
