Q: Can I use my Magic Keyboard as a wired keyboard with no bluetooth?

Can I use my Magic Keyboard as a wired keyboard with no bluetooth. I've seen articles that mention just using the lightning cable as a wired keyboard. Can I turn the bluetooth off and use it as a regular wired keyboard? Thanks

I believe you can. In the link here about wireless devices, only the Apple mouse is mentioned as excluded from doing this.
