Campden doesn't kill yeast; it's used primarily as an antioxidant. So yes, use it at bottling.

But also, before you sweeten, rack the cider into some sorbate and campden together. Sorbate doesn't kill yeast either, but it keeps yeast from reproducing so that the cider can be sweetened before bottling without fermentation restarting. It works better in the presence of campden, so they are usually added together.
