Assuming the pull-up resistor uses the 3.3V supply available on the
P8/P9 headers you should be fine.  It is unsafe to apply voltage to
the I/O pins while the BeagleBone is not powered, but there is no
requirement that the BeagleBone has to have "booted".

The only potential issue you might have is if you use any of the HDMI
I/O pins.  These pins cannot be driven while the BeagleBone is in
reset, as they are sampled at the rising edge of the reset signal and
used to determine the boot mode (ie: if you change the pin state
before the BeagleBone comes out of reset you may select an unsupported
boot mode by accident).

This is discussed in the Technical Reference Manual for the various
BeagleBones:
