Yes, it was a factory option in 1970 (my Charger has it) - code J45 on the fender tag.
about 34% of all Charger R/Ts had the option - not rare but not very common either. No numbers on the Charger 500s (not available on XH base models as far as I know).
Info take from 1970chargerregistry.com

Just the front 2 would be factory. This is a "pin on" hood. I do not have hood hinges anymore.

I only have 2 hood pins, but then again I only have half a hood.

The 70 Dodge data book is not clear regarding hood pin availability. In one section (shown below) it says "available on Charger R/T". In another section it shows them available on all three models.

Here is the other page showing J45 on all three models.
