Yes, they can. If you soften them by soaking them in water or throwing them into the pond first. Of course, the bird has to be in the mood for something salty in order for him/her to eat it.

I once knew a Mallard couple that was crazy over Cheerios!

Never feed ducks bread because it is bad for them. There are no nutrients in bread that ducks need. Also bread is heavy in their stomach and can make them drown.

Week-old ducklings would rather not eat bread. I feed them rolled oats instead, and they love it.

I live in a park where there are mallard duckswhich I feed. Would these park ducks migrate if they were not fed?

Yes they would. You should not feed wild ducks, they will become dependent on you feeding them and they will die when you stop, because they will lose the ability to find food themselves. If you continue to feed them anyway, do NOT feed them bread, it is extremely bad for them. Bread fills them up but gives them no nutrients, and they will die from malnutrition. Also if too much bread is given to them they can sink and drown.
