Is it possible to link to my PC desktop with Air Link the same way i do with the cable link?

Yes, Link and Airlink are cabled and wireless versions of the same thing

Note that the two are also mutually exclusive. Which makes all kinds of sense when you think about it. But if you have Air Link enabled on your headset (no longer need to enable it in the desktop app) you can't then use a Link Cable till you disable Air Link.

 

Air Link is also incompatible with the experimental "bring your desk into VR" feature. 3rd party desktop streaming solutions like Virtual Desktop will work with them though.

So why can’t I see my desk top?

You can. Press the Oculus button (the flat slightly recessed one on the right hand controller). This calls up the Oculus Home taskbar. One of the buttons on it opens a window showing your desktop.
