No, you can't.  TextView is not an app.

This is actually something really undesirable to support.  Talk with someone
doing Windows development about all of the bugs and weird behaviors they
need to deal with because various apps are just hooking code into the system
that runs in their process.  Imagine writing your own Android app where the
TextView and other controls you use could be replaced by some other
arbitrary code the user installed, and getting bug reports from users when
your app breaks due to bugs in that code...

Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to
provide private support, and so won't reply to such e-mails.  All such
questions should be posted on public forums, where I and others can see and
answer them.
