I’m building a HID device. Does anyone know if the HID protocol supports two way communication — can the host send commands to the device to, for example, turn on or off LEDs, power off, etc…?

Yes. E.g. it’s possible to control a monitor (select its video input, select the color mode and so on) with hidmon.
