Fwiw, I’ve run Helix units into FRFR monitors, and into power amps and cabs and MUCH prefer the latter. Bypass any cab modelling/IRs on the Helix, and limit yourself to the cab/speaker in front of you and suddenly the whole thing feels much more familiar to most guitarists.
My Express has sat unused since I got the Helix so it would be great to use both effectively
As Deft says, I’d be astounded if you’d notice any (negative) colouration to the HX models from the Express’ power amp stage. Anything that does get imparted would probably only make the models feel more ‘real’.
I would not expect changes like this, or the difference between modelled power amps in the Helix, to make no audible difference - quite the opposite, that’s the whole point of them.

I’ll give it a try and see what happens
