Clavichord and the harpsichord.
No. The harpsichord is not capable of producing a wide range of dynamics unlike the piano. Since its strings are plucked and not hit, the harpsichord can only keep one toned dynamic. Because of this, performances with different acoustics are difficult due to the limits of the harpsichord.
The harpsichord, clavichord and clavier are three such instruments.

You can't use dynamics or timbre on a harpsichord, but you can on a piano
Mozart played the piano, violin, organ, harpsichord, and maybe several other instruments.
I would say yes because the keys play the same notes except that on a harpsichord there are fewer strings. It would sound different but yes it would be OK.
