You can destroy it, yup. When you close, it's stealthed like a cypher trap and you can shoot it to destroy it.

Killjoys often place swarm nades on the bomb post-plant, but once players get used to that, they check for nades before going for a defuse - they're easy to kill if you're looking for them.

Thank you, how about alarm bot? Can that be “scouted” before getting hit by it?

Yup! And even if it does see you you can still shoot it and destroy it before it explodes.
