Not really, and it has nothing to do with C# or ASP.NET specifically.

Technically you may be able to include a request body in a GET request. If certain objects in .NET don't allow you, you can always craft such a request manually and work around those objects. However, that effort isn't going to get you very far, because GET requests aren't supposed to have request body content. So the server is most likely going to ignore it anyway, if it's not dropped by something in between.

The bottom line is, GET requests don't have a request body. Whatever you're trying to accomplish should be accomplished by some other means.
