Linking Smart bulbs with a hard switch (midwest.social)

I recently added a Hue bridge with 2 bulbs that are in lamps. I did set them up in HomeKit to act as 1 accessory. Obviously the lamps need to be "on" in order to work through the Home app/Siri. But I am wondering if there's a way through Automations to turn on both bulbs through a real dumb switch? Obviously one bulb would need power on and just be off in software.
