Apparently you can, I used jsbin to show the compiler errors which would be the same if I gave you a html file. Notice that web components (polymer to be more exact) tend to use inline scripting so you can program more declarative and that the html template you are using is close to the js code for that specific part, not in a different file.
A complete other benefit would be the npm world can contain pure typescript and you only need a nodejs compiler once nodejs support es2015 modules. Now you need to make type definitions for your npm package. I also believe the adoption rate of typescript would increase allot. I know that I can't convince a js specialist into typescript because they make far less mistakes then I do, but for beginners its highly recommended they start with something like typescript before you take off the typing training wheels and let them do pure js. I think the Ecma262 community would benefit if they can tell the world, look we will focus on the low level part and if you want typings fine, here is the superset syntax specification to do so but don't bother us again for typings go complain to Ecma26X :) It's going to relieve friction between typescript and narrows the Ecma262 down to the essentials without sacrificing blocking evolution in typings which is essentially just syntax sugar anyway and never needed as a essential part of Ecmascript. Or to phrase it differently, out source the typings by making a agreement how to do so.
