Yeah but using webpack is not how majority of websites deployed, so it's probably not worth the effort for ads companies to support it. They will consider this when webpack/wasm become mainstream enough (approaching 50% web), which may or may not happen. Probably won't happened but the thought always linger in my mind.
WASM is way less popular than Webpack.
Almost every site with some kind of front-end framework like React will use a bundler of some kind.

It's easy to first party ad code. I would guess that as a percentage of website usage Webpack, or at least code that uses custom bundling, is over 50%. JS knows all.
You can do the same exact thing in JS right now. In fact, if anything, JavaScript makes this way easier than WASM. With JS, you can just use something like Rollup or Webpack to put your analytics code in the same code.
