If you just have the cable without the switches and have the real floppy drive as DF0 and the Gotek as DF1, it will work because the Gotek does not need the motor signal and the associated logic circuit that would go with it.

This is a straight through floppy data cable with no twist in it and the Gotek would need to be have jumper set to DS1.

Note that this setup (without the switching ability) will not be as useful if you cannot use the Gotek to boot as DF0. You can (with the correct Kickstart) get it to boot as DF1, but most games will not work as it they will mostly look for DF0 at some point.
