if it is HID over GATT = Bluetooth LE then yes. Normal HID over classic bluetooth no, not possible.

Yes, over BLE it is possible. As I understand it you just need to connect to the device and subscribe to notifications on the BLE Characteristic 0x2A4D. You can test it out using the NRF Connect app to connect manually.

However I have really struggled to find a sensibly priced BLE keyboard to try this out with - if you find one please let me know :)
