I have a question, can one receive BTC with the legacy address?
That's a bit Off topic, but of course you can...

It does not make a difference if it is PSPKH (aka Legacy), P2SH (or one of it's derivatives), P2WPKH or P2WSH. As long as it is a valid address, it will be accepted by the network and you'll be able to receive funds.

The thing to note is that then those funds are recorded as belonging to that address... it won't show up in your wallet as belonging to the native segwit (aka bc1) address.
