Is it possible - mixed storage and hyper-v cluster.

Hello. I have a few strange questions.

I have one two-node Windows Storage Server cluster that is used only as failover SMB share for my two-node Hyper-V cluster. Storage cluster has sas drives connected to both nodes (Supermicro SSG-6037B-DE2R16L).

Is it possible to create a cluster of those four nodes when only two of them have access to shared sas storage and present that storage to all four servers as SMB share? I'd like to be able to use storage nodes for hyper-v VMs as they have plenty of cores/ram that could be used for that task.

Second question is on licensing matter. Is it possible to use Hyper-V Server 2019 instead of my old Storage Server 2012 R2 since it's only task is providing storage for Hyper-V? I've checked available roles on Hyper-V 2019 and file server is allowed there.
