If I have Doji Shikishi in play and I am using a wind, does her train allow me to also use the rulebook imperial favor battle action?

No.

Shikishi lets you take the Favor Rulebook action "even if you control no units at the current battlefield". She would have to have specific language exempting you from the Legacy Rule that you may not take the Favor Rulebook actions if you have a Wind. But, obviously, she does not.
