I don't quite understand the question.
While you can certainly use the laptop ONLY on the battery, that will reduce both the performance of the laptop and the brightness of the screen (to conserve battery power) and eventually, the laptop will shut off due to lack of power. So, you need to have it connected to the charger whenever possible.
I have had mine connected to the charger full-time for years and it has not suffered any ill effects.
