Goldfish are like people. They are omnivorous and need most categories of foodstuffs. So yes algae is good (like vegies) for them but they also need proteins and carbs. The better commercial goldfish foods are OK as a basic diet but are all lacking in something. The best way I know of to improve a goldfishes diet is to feed them earthworms at least once weekly.

Angelfish are mainly insectivorous and carnivorous. Goldfish are mainly omnivorous and vegetarian. So you can see that their dietry requirements are different. The reason fish food manufacturers have gone to the trouble to develop and manufacture goldfish food as a separate product from other fish foods would indicate that there is a difference in their dietry requirements. So the answer is No! It is not OK.
