It depends on the number of DWIs that someone gets within a ten year time span. It differs from state to state, but often the third and beyond offense becomes what is called formally a "Felony DUI."

Can you get probation with a dwi felony?

This depends on so many different factors and circumstances surrounding the dwi. It is certainly possible under a plea agreement if you have the right attorney, a lenient prosecutor and lenient judge. It is also unlikely that you will only get probation if your dwi felony is due to multiple dwi offences in the past. Honestly though, jail time for a dwi felony should be the least of ones worries. A felony will make it extremely difficult to secure employment.
