A:Answer Yes, you can use a wireless mouse and the touch pad at the same time. One does not disable the other .
You have two USB-Type C Thunderbolt 4 ports and one standard USB slot plus a micro SD slot and headphone jack (3.5mm). The two USB-C slots also double as charging ports. I use on USB-C slot to a small docking station that includes my charging power, two HDMI for two 32 monitors, a 1G ethernet hardwire and USBs for wireless mouse, keyboard and a backup hard drive. I was worried I wouldn't have enough ports but the Thunderbolt USB Type C is very capable.
