Yes, taking piano lessons is a good idea.
THe only thing to keep in mind is that most piano teachers will teach you how to play scales and how to read sheet music. If I were you, I would look for a teacher, who'll be able to teach you more then that. Look for someone who can also haelp you learn how to play by ear and improvise. If on top of that they'll know a thing or two about arranger keyboards or sequencing it will make things a lot easier.
