I wouldn't, and haven't had them surviving the heap in over 30 years.

Obviously my compost heap isn't warm enough!

Definitely had bindweed survive so always burn it.

Mine is a cold heap! However, it is a big heap - it gets to be a
cube of 4' before it rots down - and I don't put such weeds on it
last thing before moving to a new one. There may be other factors,
too, because I am not disputing that such weeds CAN establish in a
compost heap.
