A1901, bought in store at Apple Store, full price device - on AT&T - it’s NOT activated. Can I just put a Verizon SIM in there first which will unlock it so I don’t have to activate on AT&T or deal with manually unlocking through AT&T?

Cheers!
 
That device does not support CDMA, and is not ideal for Verizon because of that.

If you purchased AT&T model full price as device only at the apple store it's permanently unlocked. No need to insert your verizon sim to activate it.
