Rocky.

what type of passive? Autoformer or resistors?

what type of resistor attenuator? Series, Ladder, or Shunt?

input and output impedance of attenuator? At what frequency?

output impedance of phono?

input impedance of amplifier?

It’s a matter of matching impedances and one would need more info about the passive unit and the amplifier in order to answer your question. Otherwise you can connect anything to anything. Also quality counts a lot with a passive attenuator.
