Can you use an LED dimmer switch in combination with a 5A light socket?

I have bought a large floor lamp that I want to control from a dimmer switch. Can I use an LED dimmer switch in combination with a 5A light socket? The bulb going in this floor lamp is  an Led E27 bulb with 10W.

No problem at all. Indeed that's one of the benefits of using a 5A socket for plug-in lights as it prevents you plugging something else in (e.g. TV) that wouldn't like being fed by a dimmer. Make sure your bulb is dimmable though.
