Hi, and welcome. If you mean the NexImage, yes, it's safe. I bought mine from the USA and it works fine. Keep in mind that the warranty won't be valid in Australia, but considering the price difference it is worth the risk I think.
There is a bit of a problem with your dob (I have it too) because it is a bit awkward to focus with the camera connected to a computer as you might twist the cable, but I think it can be done. I usually use mine with another scope though.
You can also buy a normal cheap webcam and modify it. There are tutorials on how to do it.
