Hi, I’m new here.
I am currently using Minna No Nihongo Beginner 1 for self-studying along with Wanikani (Currently Level 3). Can I start using Bunpro N5 Decks along with MMN1? Should I use only the Grammar deck Bunpro provided because I already learn vocabulary from MMN?
Thank you in advance and sorry for my bad English.
Edit : I also want to know whether I can switch from MMN to Full Bunpro after I finished MMN1?

There is a Minna no nihongo deck which has the grammar points in order, so I suggest you use that. Once you are done with that deck, you can use the bunpro n5 deck or go through manually to pick up the remainder.
You can switch to bunpro after mnn1 by all means. If you find that textbook based learning is useful, you can use get mnn2 and there is a bunpro deck for that as well.
I had used mnn to start my Japanese journey as well, so happy to answer more questions. Personally, I focused on going through the book and added bunpro grammar points as I learnt them in the book, and then use the bunpro system to reinforce the stuff I learned.

Thank you so much for the reply! 
I want to know how do you study vocabs? MMN has a lot of vocabs and I’m using Anki to rewiew them. Do you have any suggestions? Also, it seems like MMN grammar points and Bunpro Grammar points don’t really match that well.

I just used the bunpro vocab decks and did like 5 to 10 words a day. If I encountered a new vocab from studying mnn I would add it to my review queue in bunpro too. I did try anki for vocab but I much preferred just having a single app, and I found having whole sentences was better to contextualise the word.
One other thing to consider is to set vocabulary reviews to reading. It goes quicker which is needed since vocab reviews are like 5 to 10 times of grammar.
