No problem. If what you mean is "do people in Dublin associate wearing orange with unionism and object to it on those grounds" then the answer is no, short of a sash or King William t-shirt and even then most people wouldn't be bothered. This is not the North and most of us don't really care that much, if the truth be told.
Of course now wearing orange as a fashion disaster waiting to happen is a distinct possibility - "Jasus would you get that bright shiny shirt out of my eyeline, I've a throbbing hangover...."

Yes,
Allthough orange is associated with William of Orange and the Unionist movement in Ulster, unless you are wearing a sash and bowler hat I wouldn't worry.
Of course, orange does not suit everybody!
There are people who still have many reasons to express political opinions as above and this can be very useful in promoting debte but for the most part people will debate these at the appropriate time.
Enjoy yourself in Ireland.
