hi,

Is it possible to wire a sonoff box to my bathroom lights above the ceiling and still using the pull cord?

No. The Sonoff boxes are just smart relays and rely on a constant power supply. As soon as you pull the cord, the Sonoff is dead.

What you possibly want is a Fibaro switch. But you need to check your wiring on the pull cord first. We have a switch in the kitchen for example that is about as dumb as you can get so it just has the live going through it and the switch breaks or makes the circuit. With the Fibaro, if I understand them correctly, the switch sort of becomes a low voltage switch to control the relay. They're not cheap but I've heard very good thing about them.

SONOFF mini or shelly1 have switched mains inputs.
