As far as I know, it's not possible, at least there is no public API.

setCursor() only changes the mouse cursor:

bq. "QWidget::setCursor() ":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/stable/qwidget.html#cursor-prop
The mouse cursor will assume this shape when it's over this widget.

is it possible to add QTextCursor to display a custom cursor in QLineEdit

QTextCursor is not about visual appearance but only about positions and selections in a text document.
