I want to control my non-smart lamp with Home assistant scenes. Could I somehow clone the RF/ir signal from the controller or the Bluetooth signal from the app with no external hardware besides my tablet with Bluetooth?

Does the lamp has the bluetooth connection?
There are some ways to catch the RF/IR signals, but unless you are willing to start from the scratch, it might be easier to just buy some smart lamps

If it has Bluetooth, you can watch this for inspiration:
If it has IR, you can get an IR blaster to learn and send those signals, like the Broadlink RM4 Pro

A lot of Bluetooth led controllers can be controlled with multiple different apps. You can try those other apps (Magic home, LotusLamp) and see if they work.
Here is a repository which may help: https://github.com/dave-code-ruiz/elkbledom

Just did a bunch of searching and found and was about to link this same thing 😅
The apps linked here look like carbon copies of this magic lantern app, so it's looking hopeful

It is same as Tuya is manufacturing many smart devices which are then branded by different vendors for their own apps, but they all work with Tuya integration

You could use an ESPHome Bluetooth proxy. Place it close to your lamp and it will then route the BT info over WiFi back to your pi
