Can M1 MacBook Air support a monitor and external mic?

Can I use the USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter to connect to a monitor via HDMI and an external microphone using USB? With my current dongle it sometimes turns off the monitor when I attach the mic. Am I drawing too much power MacBookAir M1? Do I need a powered dongle?
