MIDI keyboard as a Stream Deck replacement

I have a LaunchKEY MINI MIDI controller. I wonder if I can use it in AE and Premiere for additional control? For example: assign a certain function to any of the keys. Or assign zoom or something else to a knob/pot. Is that even possible? Because I was thinking about buying a Stream DECK or something like that. Maybe it's not necessary if you have a MIDI controller. What do you think about it?
