I keep seahorses and I personally would never risk putting even a super chill puffer in with the ponies. If perchance it did nip the resulting wound could prove fatal to a seahorse.
But even if it did not nip, valentinis are undoubtedly wild caught and now most greater seahorses are captive bred. A CB seahorse does not have the immune ability to deal with the pathogens that WC stock bring in with them.
Dwarf seahorses are sometimes WC but they are tiny and I fear they would look like food to a puffer, even a small puffer. Dwarf seahorses are not for the ordinary Aquarists as they require live food that must be hatched daily and enriched. It is a rigorous, enslaving task and is not for everyone. In fact it is not for most! I know because I accidently received a dwarf seahorse in a ghost shrimp order and am now caring for it. I can honestly say she is cute, but I would never choose to keep dwarfs!
So my recommendation is I would not do it.
