No, you can't use a PC one as the signal codes are different, but adaptors pop up on eBay from time to time. You can also make a PC to CD32 keyboard adaptor, projects are on Aminet...but these require coding chips...something I can't do, maybe you can though?

A4000T keyboards just plug straight in, or you can use any other big box Amiga keyboard with a PS/2 to DIN adaptor purchased from any shop...or make your own adaptor

Worth noting that CDTV keyboards do not work with CD32

Do you mean A4000 keyboards? A4000T have the larger plug like the A2000/3000.
