Best Answer:
Yes you can. No there are no issues with syncing sound with the timing of the video. The HomePod calibrates with the video content to address this, so you will not experience any latency between the audio and video streams.

Do I have to use Siri with HomePod?
- Asked by Jeffrey G from Cambridge
- 02-Mar-2020
- Flag as inappropriate Do I have to use Siri with HomePod?
AnswerSure- You can Airplay everything. Either Apple Music or most about any other streaming service, or iTunes if you still use it. You can also use it through your Apple TV.
The Home app contains a bunch of ways to control Siri, which you can turn on or off:
Listen for"Hey Siri"
Touch and Hold for Siri
Light When Using Siri
Sound When Using Siri
Language
Siri Voice
Personal Requests.
Under that is "About Siri and Privacy"
There is no bluetooth or physical inputs on Homepods. That is because there are plenty of cheaper bluetooth speakers out there. But none of them sound as good as a pair (or even one) of Homepods.- Answered by Michael M from Atlanta

Best Answer:
No, there are no ways to connect HomePod via jacks to any other input OR output devices. It connects via wifi only.
That said, have you listened to a HomePod? It's been tested by audiophiles and rated as the full equal of other systems that, in some cases, cost considerably more. I'm sure there are other, higher-quality systems, also higher-priced; dollar for dollar, the HomePod is pretty amazing.- Answered by John A from New York

Answer
Homepod can be used for an output device for anything using Airplay. But I don't think it is setup to work as an input device, as it is designed to listen for "hey Siri" in order to perform any of its functions. With all the built in mics it has, such capability would be nice, though, as it does activate the mics for use in phone calls.
