Yes, one night at lower than idea temperatures should not effect the hatch. This is natures way of allowing for eggs laid in a natural environment that may drop quite cold at nights. Many hens will not brood until they have collected a clutch of eggs. They will leave the first few eggs unprotected for hours at a time but once they have enough eggs in a clutch they will set on the eggs almost constantly, leaving only for occational food and water and to defaecate.
