Not in precisely the way you mean, but that can be done: https://www.sqlite.org/expridx.html

But you need to know in advance which keys/paths you want to index.

Postgres can index the entire JSON document (or parts of it) and they can support unknown query condition (e.g. using a JSON path). This isn't as fast as a proper B-Tree index, but still faster than a full table scan.

I think the limiting factor is that there's no way to split the single JSON document out into all its paths and values in a way that SQLite can index it. There's `json_each` and `json_tree` but there's no way to generate a (dynamic) table using these functions that you could then index, as far as I know.

I believe this could probably be done using a trigger on document insert, but that would involve actually inserting each path and value into it's own table, rather than SQLite generating it on the fly, so it would likely more than double the storage requirement and require inserting potentially hundreds of rows for each document, depending on what your original document structure looks like.
