A telecoil cannot be retrofitted into a hearing aid that was made without one. Often, the telecoil is in the aid, but the fitter didn't activate it. It's a pleasant surprise for one to find it is there when learning about it. Good time to ask the question "Why wasn't it activated and explained to me?" So the answer is 'no'. It's either there or it isn't, but it may not be turned on.
