Brief Answer:
It depends on your religion and beliefs.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
I understand there are few communities, where such marriages happen and they do beget children. Chances of genetic disorders is more.

If your community/ faith does not allow such marriage, it is better not to go ahead with such marriage.
