Yes, you can choose Mumbai as your CTET exam centre even if you select Assamese as your language paper. The exam centre choice depends on your current location, not your state of residence.
However, make sure that Assamese is available as an optional language while filling the CTET form once selected, your center and language choices are independent, so you can write the exam in Mumbai with Assamese as your language.
