There are studded tires you can get for ice but I'm not certain about their application on electric bikes.
The problem with that though is they aren't legal everywhere. I know where I'm at we can't have studded tires.
Bicycles can't or vehicles can't? There's a vast difference in weight and I imagine most wouldn't even notice.
I know you can't on a motorcycle so I'd assume you can't on an ebike as well.
I don't live in the snow so never tried in real life, but local laws usually classify different levels of two wheeled vehicles. Some laws treat level 2 and under, where most e-bikes are, the same as bicycles. Mopeds and motor-driven cycles are a level above that are allowed on surface streets the same as cars but too underpowered for the highway. Then the level above that is the traditional motorcycle that are allowed on streets and highways.
tl;dr, it might be allowed for e-bikes to have studded tires depending on how local laws classify it.
