What do you mean by "possible"? If the device has Bluetooth and you have the capabilities of creating a bluetooth keyboard, then certainly it would work.

The "programming" part of the question needs clarification, though. You program in Visual Studio on your desktop PC, then compile the app and deploy it to the device. Obviously this can be done with a Bluetooth keyboard attached to the PC. If you're asking "can I develop C# applications directly on the WinMo device by simply adding a Bluetooth keyboard" then the answer is "No. You would need a compiler. There was an open-source one back in the 1.0 days (hasn't been touched since '04), but I've seen nothing since."

R – How to add a button to a compact framework DataGrid

You can use the DataGrid's

public Rectangle GetCellBounds(int row, int col);

with

public event EventHandler CurrentCellChanged;
public DataGridCell CurrentCell { get; set; }

public event MouseEventHandler MouseMove;
public HitTestInfo HitTest(int x, int y);

to show a Button (or another control) over the selected cell.

R – Looking for a control for selecting a directory in Windows Mobile (using .NET Compact Framework)

I am not sure but maybe you can modify the following class-library to suit your needs.

Above class-library is great since you can overcome one of the most annoying shortcomings of the standard OpenFileDialog, namely the limit of not being able to browse the whole file system (it just let you browse My Documents subfolders and Storage cards).

Maybe not the answer you wanted to heat but hey: it might work out with some slight changes to the code.

Good luck.
