Does the kernel have a concept for a key that can be on-the-fly
configured to individually turn on/off any combination of wlan,
bluetooth and/or cellular modems?

Recent Dell laptops all have a wireless switch. This switch can be
configured at runtime by dellWirelessCtl (part of libsmbios-bin) to
individually turn on/off any combination of each of the above.
