Just try it and find out. Find out if you can do it without a screen as well.
You'd just have to plug it into a dock to test

If that doesn't work (maybe the switch needs the battery detected) you could try putting a resistor that matches the resistance of the battery to simulate it in there, if you're really going for wall-only power. However, PLEASE double-check with someone who knows their electronics because you might just fry some shit.

I wouldn't suggest that, it most likely tries to detect the battery based on if there is voltage or not, assuming it cares at all
