can a keyrune still tap for mana as a creature?

Sure. Becoming a creature doesn't make it lose any other abilities it has.

Notably, you can animate Selesnya Keyrune, block a creature, tap the Keyrune for a green mana, and use that green mana to cast Giant Growth on the Keyrune.

If you were to find a way to give the Keyrune vigilance, you could attack with it, tap it for mana, and cast Giant Growth on it then.

I'd like to add that this is a really great casual strategy, especially if you and your friends are beginners. It introduces you to the small intricacies of the game while staying relatively simple.
