^ I know there wasn't any indication but my point is,  Cora and Regina learnt to use magic without any dark one powers. Peter Pan was also using magic outside Neverland (in Storybrooke). I also think that there was a passing indication that Rumple was brought up by spinner sisters (who gave him magic bean 3x08) could be witches.
