You can but it significantly increases the cost of the windshield, for my 2014 keep compass it cost $350 for a windshield however that can easily triple for a heated windshield.

Additionally chips in heated windshields cannot be repaired and while it is damaged it it’s not recommended to use the heater as it can cause cracking or the chip to transfer though the lamination to the inner part of the window

It’s offered of some luxury vehicles but like all luxury parts your paying the luxury premium
