A 12W iPad power adapter will not provide sufficient power for your MacBook Air. So it probably will not work, but attempting to use it won't damage anything.

Other than that, all you need to use a North American style power adapter is a commonly available "plug adapter" sold in convenience stores. The detachable 3 pin adapter you describe can be used.
