PN7160 and question about NFC switch for mechanical keyboard

Hi, is it possible the make a mechanical keyboard that uses cherry switches with NFC tags, the switches would complete the antenna circuit to activate the NFC tag inside each switch (this way the switches would not needed any wiring onto a PCB), could pn7160 read the switches? Can it read two tags at the same time for key combinations? Sorry if this sounds silly, I have no idea.

From what I can see from the UM11495, PN7160 supports collision, so it can detect multiple VICCs.
