i want to have my speedlight on my camera (430exii) in the hotshoe

will i be able to use a yn-622 connected to the camera (via pc cord) to control off camera speed lights?

i cant seem to find the answer to this question.

The 622 has a passthrough, so you can mount your speedlight to it.

Correct, the 622-TX does not have a hotshoe so you can not mount it on the camera with a flash ontop of it.

For that the regular 622 is a better option.
