That's what I did for my XP5s, and it works. I mostly used it for apps that needed a mouse cursor for initial setup options but I could then operate with keys. Smart Audiobook Player, Audible(which stopped working after the 8.1 update :_, and an ebook reader, mostly to set which folder things were saved to or where my library was stored. But, having used both, I will say a software mouse is more convenient, as using a bluetooth mouse means you have to remember to keep it charged, bring it along, and hold/juggle two devices if you don't have a convenient place to set your phone down. Assuming you are using apps that need a cursor in actual operation instead of just setup.
