Yes (like 2nd generation Apple Pencil) it can, if it's compatible with your iPad (seeing your product list, it looks like you have an iPad Pro 11", so it supports Apple Pencil 2nd generation only).

See this compatbility list:--> Apple Pencil compatibility - Apple Support

As far as Scribble (convert to text) is concerned, take a look at this support page:--> Enter text with Scribble on iPad – Apple Support (UK)
