Sure!

Rapture (the EE spell) is among the Witchcraft skills, which means it's linked to Intelligence and to nothing else. A generalist spellcaster could try using it, given how a spellcaster would already have high Intelligence anyway.

Rapture (the D:OS skill) was a Scouldrel that was not actually linked do daggers, so it could be used by someone who had high Dexterity but didn't specialize in the Scouldrel skills. Not that there were many of those, but it was possible.

With the change from the original D:OS to EE, Scouldrel lost one of its few abilities that could be used without daggers. Which means, a character focused on Marksman (which is basically the only high Dex character who wouldn't be already focusing on Scouldrel) has one less skill to use if dabling in Scouldrel.

The result is that, while a spellcaster can dable in other schools of magic (again, with the issues I mentioned in my previous post), someone who's using the skills - other than spells - cannot dable in multiple skill schools at once.

In less words, the "35 spells" doesn't work if you change it to "35 skills".
