For future reference it is best you provide a full code example in
what your problem is when you ask the question, Asking if it something
is proper isn't going to get you far.

<?php echo $am_somevar; ?>

is perfectly valid but accoring to the mistake you had you should have
been using:
<?php echo $I_am_somevar;?>

It would have been more relevant to supply the problem along with the solution.
