Is this a crazy idea

I have a number of tasks and a number of resources, some of the
resources and need to work on specific tasks, but other than that I do
not have any dependencies, but I do have some that are higher priority
than others. I have some dates that need to be met.

I am wondering if I can actually use project to do all the scheduling
for me by just setting relative priorities and deadlined as required.
I think that this should work because my understanding of levelling is
such that tasks with a higher priority will be scheduled ahead of
tasks with a lower priority and that as long as I set all the tasks to
fixed work project should sort it out?
