Since Git Bash supports Linux, Windows and Mac, is that possible to add Git Bash as VTE for Geany?

VTE is a terminal emulator widget, Git bash is a shell, that runs inside the terminal emulator. As such, no, git bash cannot replace VTE (which isn't available for Windows in any case).

On platforms where VTE is supported you can run git bash in the VTE by setting it as the shell in Menu ->Edit->Preferences->Terminal->Shell

Geany(Windows version) doesn't have Terminal option in the Preferences

I noted above it that VTE is not available for Windows, so its not supported in Windows.
