Default Keyboard control of Virtual Instruments

virtual instrument plugins.

I am at a point in my ever growing understanding of PT's and I want to add to same by implementing the use of virtual instrument software plugins. Can I use my Yamaha keyboard to do this? I don't want to use MIDI piano roll style. I want to be able to select a virtual instrument from a list of same installed in my computer, (Windows 7, 32 bit, Pro Tools 9.0.6), and then record the sound of the virtual instrument by playing my keyboard real time. Is this even possible? Please pardon my ignorance of virtual plugins. I've always stuck to playing real time but I am finding a need for more realistic instrument sounds in my recordings and some of the samples in my keyboard just don't get it! It's old like me. Thanks for any assistance.
