Naturally, you can’t select a spell that has a padlock on it as these haven’t been learned yet.
You can access this menu at any point so don’t worry about your spells being locked away. However, do keep in mind you are at that four limit when wanting to cast so make sure you have a solid variation otherwise you might find yourself in some hot water, especially on harder difficulties.
