Great question! This is the same advice I would give to my patients in invisalign. Having Wisdom teeth removed prior, during, or after treatment does not usually negatively affect the treatment outcome.

Theron Baker, DDS answers: Will wisdom tooth extraction affect Invisalign?
I have two wisdom teeth that have been bothering me, and I had been thinking of getting them removed. I just got started with Invisalign and prior to treatment, I asked my orthodontist if I should get my wisdom teeth removed prior to treatment. He said it doesn't matter and even if I get it removed during treatment, it should not negatively affect my Invisalign treatment. Does this sound right?
