Hi, I have the Interrail Global Pass and a seat reservation from Paris to Lyon Part Dieu.

Now I realize that my train terminates at Lyon Perrache which is close to my hotel. If possible I like to stay on the train to Perrache. 

So my question is: would that be ok (the pass covers the full trip) or could there be a problem as the reservation is to Part Dieu only?

That's not a problem. Nobody will book a TGV for that short section, so nobody will claim your seat; also, it's unlikely that SNCF staff will check tickets between these stations, and if they do, it's unlikely they'll have a problem with it.
