yes, but why don't do it at settings? It is way easier

You can get infected even when activating Windows from illegal KMS servers on CMD. You don't know who manages it. But if you run a company and needs to activate a lot of workstations, you can setup your own safe KMS server to activate the machines.

Conclusion: it's better to leave Windows not activated if you're going to use these methods (in illegal ways) that breaks security. But if you have a company and your own KMS server, it's safe.
