Just a bit of "foundation" here about the voices in Notation Composer, and I think you'll be on your way
(The short answer to the first part of your question is "yes, you can take a .mid file recorded from your keyboard to Notation Composer and change the instrument sound.")
Notation Composer uses the MIDI playback device(s) that you have on your computer. The default one is the GS Wavetable which is present on all Windows computers. For any staff of a file when you open it in Notation Composer, you can change the instrument that plays those notes. So, yes, you could record using a piano sound, but then change the instrument to clarinet in Notation Composer. However, do be aware that the sound quality of the clarinet that plays while using the GS Wavetable won't be as nice as the clarinet (or other instruments!) using your Tyros 3.
If you have a way to connect your Tyros to your computer, you can use it as your MIDI playback device and have nicer sound. Another benefit of such a setup is that you could then record directly from it into Notation Composer, saving the "save to file, open file in Notation Composer" steps.
Hope the above is helpful.
