In an emergency situation yeah you could get home with the different tire size but if you are picking out a spare I would not recommend going with a smaller tire. You'll wear out other tires and suspension components pretty quick.
I attached a link to a page that has all of the wheels and tires we offer that match the tire size you listed. You will need to select your bolt pattern from the filters to see the ones that will fit.
