Can you use the safe pal X1 model with electrum as a cold wallet?
No.
That Safepal is closed source crap, and they are lying about being open source because they never released source code for X1, even after many people asked them to do it.
They only support their own Safgepal app wallet and this is a big problem for me, no third party wallets will ever be supported.

That particular model doesn't have the air-gap signing support for p2bt/QR export/sign workflow that can be used as a workaround.
And even 'S1' / 'S1 Pro', its QR Code feature has an encryption factor which will only work on their official wallet app so you can't even use the Camera + QR code method if you decided to upgrade.

On the other hand, USB/Bluetooth linked wallet will only work if their developer write an Electrum-plugin (easier said than done),
Then, they must send a Pull Request to Electrum to be officially included to the release binaries.

I don't think so. Safepal doesn't seem like a popular hardware wallet and as far as I can tell by looking at the code Electrum only supports a handful of them, you can their names here:
https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-docs/blob/master/hardware-linux.rst#2-python-libraries

Move your topic (there is a button at the bottom right side of this page) to the Electrum board, maybe others have more information on it in case I am wrong.
If not, open a new issue on Electrum's repository and ask if they can add the support for it in the next version. https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/new
