Can I pass an objectify entity (i.e class annotated by @Entity) to a function accepting com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Entity ?

No. Java is a typed language. You can only pass subclasses of com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Entity to a function which accepts com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Entity. Anything else won't compile.

No, the entity annotation doesn't change the type of the object. There is no "getProperty" in objectify but you could certainly use reflection or commons BeanUtils to do a similar thing.
