You mean ones that will try to exploit and defraud you on every opportunity? Probably not.

If you mean hosting providers in general, yes, they'll usually handle a Let's Encrypt certificate for you for free.

I've had DreamHost forever and Let's Encrypt is literally a check box on a domain. They may even support others like ZeroSSL but I haven't bothered to look because I don't care. I take the savings on paying for SSL and donate it to the EFF and Let's Encrypt.
