    well... i supposed you could if you removed the mirror, put a similar heating element like rear window defoggers on the back side, add wiring to, glue it back onto your mirror assembly, and run it off a custom fuse setup. then maybe.

    for shits and giggles, check this out. if you can glue that to the back of your mirror AND keep it glued to your mirror assembly, and successfully wire it to a custom fused switch, you could probably pull it off. i think it said a 5x8 inch piece is around 10 bucks. didn't look into it so I don't know if it's 120v or 12v or 5v. good luck!

    I think the hardest part would getting it all glued, and keeping it glued, to your mirror assembly.

    That is different and I have been looking at changing out the mirror for one of the 4runners ones that's heated look like it might work
