On the nuva ring i replaced it a day before it due to be taken out to avoid getting my period will this wrk?

Yes: Yes, definitely. A lot of women do this and I recommend it to my patients when they want to skip a period. You can also do with birth control pills, just skip the last week of "placebo" pills. No problem whatsoever, other than you may need a new prescription sooner than you would if you had a period once every 3 weeks. Best of luck !
