Sure.

Do you mean the interrupts DT property won't be present if there is no
interrupt. If so, sure.

That shouldn't be necessary; IIRC, the I2C core has already parsed the
interrupts property if there was one, and if there wasn't, it has set
i2c->irq to some invalid value already.

So, you simply need to check the value in i2c->irq, and don't need to
look at the DT at all.
