Aquara H1 - is it possible for only one rocker to be decoupled?

I’m a complete home assistant newbee so be gentle with me.

I want to set up a smart switch where one rocker is hardwired, and the other activates an action triggering some smart plugs that I have.

The Aquara H1 seems to be a good switch but there doesn’t seem to be very clear information out there. I know they can be decoupled, but it isn’t obvious to me whether, on a double rocker unit, you can have one switch coupled and the other decoupled.

can any of you give me a clear answer on that before I accidentally buy the wrong thing.

Thanks

(I know that the H2 has decoupled switches on the bottom and coupled switches on top by default, but I feel like the layout will be unintuitive to people who aren’t techy. I don’t think the idea of one rocker controlling 2 different things is ideal)

Usually, yes.
More tricky if it’s no neutral, but it should work.
I have a Tuya switch that one uses the relay and 2 are decoupled.

Yes, we have an Aqara ‘Smart wall switch H1 EU (with neutral, double rocker)’, WS-EUK04 set up like this. One switch controls the relay and one is decoupled. The Zigbee2MQTT controls look like this:
