Will this controller work with a steam deck?

Yes, it can work with steam deck now.

can you connect it wirelesly without using the usb dongle

By updating to Firmware Version2.0 you can now connect this controller over Bluetooth. After updating it, on the bottom of the controller set the switch to "D" and it will show up as a Bluetooth controller. Switch it back to "X" to connect to the 2.4g dongle again. Nice feature to enable use on two different computers without having to move the dongle back and forth.
