Can I use MS Explorer and access files on a WEBDAV server via webdav:// ? Nope.

No, you access them with http:// and https://, the correct protocol.

"(...) you access them with http:// and https://, the correct protocol."

But does that allow me to *upload* files to a WEBDAV(S) resource via drag'n'drop file management?

With the "webdav://" KIO slave Konqueror can do that for me.

Of course, Konqueror can also use http(s):// to access a WEBDAV(S) resource (and this way emulate the MS Explorer lameness), but then it is read-only as well.

Try again.
