You can always pay gold to upgrade the lower stones to the higher ones if you can't get to the higher level dungeons. It doesn't look like any of the dungeon-related quests require you to get to any certain part of the dungeon, though advancing further will, of course, make getting the higher stones cheaper (as you'll have to upgrade less).

If you have enough gold, none of the dungeon quests should stop you.
