Is the older version apple magic external keyboard compatible with the new M1 Mac Book Pro? Or do I have to purchase the new "silicon" compatible keyboard?

Is there a way to buy a 16" Macbook Pro with the same style keyboard as the 13"? I love the style of the keyboard on the macbook airs and the 13" macbook pro because they have the silver color of the trackpad that's also around the keyboard also between the keys of the keyboard + have backlighting (I think the 16"pro has backlights too though) but I would like to use the M1 Max chip so I can run resource intensive games so, Is there a way to get the same keyboard style of the 13" macbook pro/macbook air on the 16" macbook pro with m1 max or is that not possible? thanks

Any USB Mac keyboard will work, a few shortcuts might be different but the keyboard works
