As far as I am aware, when "would" is used to refer to past habits or states,
we do not use it with state verbs. But in the "have + noun" collocations (expressions),
can I use:
e.g.
I would have a shower three times a day when I was younger.

instead of
I used to have a shower three times a day......

'Have' here is dynamic, and so your sentence is correct.
