Is it okay if I order some dress shirts and neckties online? My size is 18" neck and 34" sleeve for example. Or would it be better to buy dress shirts and neckties at a store in person?

For suits, sportcoats/blazers, and trousers my policy is go in person to buy it.

Please clarify your question. Are you asking whether purchasing these items online is morally permissible? Are you asking whether it is possible within the boundaries of physical space-time? Or, perhaps, whether such a purchase would meet with the approval of social peers, if not superiors? Would Socratic or Platonic ethics permit such an action, even though Aristotelian ethics would not?

It's fine as long as you know your fit in that brand.

I would normally think this is spam if it wasnt for the 294 posts.

Clearly you do not fully understand what you are doing so go to a shop and buy in person.
