Ye. I have all Ikea smart stuff, by default everything is running a local mesh network with physical remotes and that light switch backup.

You don't even need to connect any of it to the net, buying a hub to get app & google home/alexa/etc control is entirely optional with the exception of a few sensors, like the moisture/water leak one. And even then, the app & hub work on local wifi with no internet anyway.
