    No: WebGL2 just shipped this year. (In fact it hasn't shipped in Edge or Safari yet). It will likely be several years before there are any new versions with newer features like geometry shaders. Commented Sep 21, 2017 at 8:02
  • Yeah I know that webgl2 is releasing recently. but I'm trying to find something else to go throw this limitation of webgl. I think that this feature can not be added to webgl2 by extensions , am I true? Commented Sep 21, 2017 at 9:53
  • WbGL doesn't have any official support for geometry shaders, and won't at any time in the near future. It is possible to use textures to emulate a many to one relationship in the vertex shader. acko.net/blog/yak-shading Commented Sep 25, 2017 at 14:06

No

No (wrt using anything else besides OpenGL ES 3.0 using WebGL 2.0)

I think that this feature can not be added to webgl2 by extensions

Well in theory it could, in fact the majority of API features were extensions once. As of now though there's no extension exposing geometry shaders for WebGL 2
