If by cheat on your partner and get away with it, you mean having casual sex with trusted friends with the express permission of my spouse, absolutely, but then that wouldn't be cheating at all would it?
Cheating is wrong in the sense that being dishonest with someone you love is wrong. Open communication is a good thing and if you don't want to be monogamous you should just be with someone who's okay with that.
Yep, cheating is deceiving someone that you are not violating an expectation that matters to you both. Being married wouldn't entail no spontaneous sex unless that was part of the expectation you've both granted the other. My first (3-year+) marriage was open .. turned out I didn't like that in fact any where near as much as I liked it in theory. My current (3-decade+) marriage is decidedly closed and we like it that way.
