Solution

    No.

    Is it possible to embed chrome browser in JavaFx application?

    Yes.

    Try JCEF from the chromium embedded project instead of WebView.

    For a commercial solution, JxBrowser advertises Chromium support for JavaFX applications.

    I have not used either of JxBrowser or JCEF, so I have no further details or advice on how to use them or whether or not they would be fit for your purpose.
