Yes, it is definitely possible. To add a set of crossbars to the roof of your 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee, I recommend the roof rack by Rhino-Rack and you will need the following parts:

Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 49" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA126B-2

RCL Legs for Rhino-Rack Crossbars - Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4 item # RRRCL4

Custom RCP Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack RC - Fixed Mounting Points item # RRRCP64-BK

This aero bar roof rack system has a 165 lbs capacity. The included locks will help prevent theft. The rubberized vortex strips in the top channels dramatically reduce drag and wind noise.

I have attached a couple of pictures, along with a video, that will show you what this system will look like when installed on your Jeep.
