It is not. That was only added on the M200 and M6 MKII

As was mentioned it’s not possible.  However I might suggest picking up a set of “Beston” batteries with USB charger.  That way you can charge all of your batts from any 5v USB power source (like a portable power bank).  Plus the Bestons are “chipped” (another nice benefit).
