firmware 8.2r5 was added to hivemanager onprem 12.8.3.1, but in the firmware release info, it says that this firmware is only compatible with HiveManager NG 19.2.1.1 ... so can we update APs to 8.2r5 if hivemanager onprem is version 12.8.3.1 or not?

I use the newer HiveOS's on even the legacy HM platform. From my understanding the only limitation you'd see is the ability to turn on/off any new bells/whistles that the newer HiveOS added. As the GUI (HM platform) would need updated to have added that capability.
The OS for the AP/Switches however would support them and you should be able to in theory use any new features by configuring them manually or via Supplement CLI.
