yes

Please check the documentation and search the forum, this is basic stuff, there are multiple possible workflows for this

The easiest solution is to play PPT on another computer on the same LAN with any device to control the presentation.
Then run vMix Desktop Capture on this computer in order to add NDI Desktop Capture input in vMix.

I use a presentation clicker everyday within the vMix Power Point module. It is true that the transitions that you may have created in the Power Point program itself will not work.

vMix NDI Capture Desktop is a free utility that you can run on (multiple) Windows and Mac computers which are connected to the same LAN network as vMix.
It allows you to capture either the full display or any chosen application window in order to use it it in your production.

hi ice,

just check my website for some powerpoint presentations recorded with vmix. i use it all the time. www.watertv.nl

i set up my own local wifi, connected to my recorder vmix machine and the laptop can be anywhere, usually on the stage. sometimes i do it for my clients.

i also provide the powerpoint clicker. TIP: logitech has a new one with a vitual ponter that vmic desktop capture can see and you can record.

it needs to be preinstalled though thats why i bring my own laptop with powerpont and connection with vmix.

be aware that double wifi will slow things down like transitions, so better to have one end, pref the vmix machine wired to the wifi router. or a direct cable connection can be used. this will give the best results.
