I'm no expert, but I've always been told that the order of exercises is important: each exercise prepares the body for the next exercise, or is the complement of the one before it. If you think about it, the exercises in a good yoga routine first stretch your body one way, then stretch it in the opposite direction. To stretch the bod one way but not back the other way might leave things out of balance.
If I want to shorten the session, I drop the "deep relaxation" part at the end. That never seems to be a problem. Or if I really don't have the time to do a complete session, I just do "sun worship," which is the opening warmup exercise and also a kind of condensed version of the entire workout.
