Yes, you can now use Custom Postage for your £20 and under items. To do this enter the correct price, make sure your Simple Delivery is set to 'Large Letter' size, and Custom Postage option should load. When you use CP you can change to any Royal Mail size/weight and post with your stamps. Best to take these into the Post Office to ask for Proof of Posting. And if you send 2nd Class be prepared for a lot of 'where's my item' queries - now that 2nd delivery is only 2-3 days per week it is a lot slower.

There is no 'opt out' as such. There are categories where SD is not available and size and price exemptions.  Your items appear to be mandatory SD.

 

Look at the SD guidance.
