Yes. The Airports, and most WLAN routers from Cisco, Linsys, Netgear,
etc, do both WiFi and wired LAN.

Not as a simple switch option. Some may have a control to turn the
WiFi on/off, but it would be really annoying to have to go into the
config of the router every single time.

Your husband is being paranoid. The RF output is too low to be of a
concern, unless he's going to mount it on his head and leave it there
for years on end.
