No, it's not supported to import custom map layer into Bing map visual in Power BI. You can only put geography data fields into the visual. However, Power BI can't parse kml files to return data fields. 

We can import custom map layer in Shape Map visual. But it only accepts TopoJSON file, and it's not possible to dynamically refresh the file.
