Instead of the using Google Map’s polyline API, is it possible to layer an SVG image over the map with a library like d3?
Are there any examples of this in the wild?

Yes, of course it is possible. In regards to any examples in the wild, Google has an example of creating a custom overlay using an image. If you want to use SVG or even Canvas then there is really no difference you can manipulate the DOM in any way you please 🙂
