If you're trying to retrofit one into a 1930s car, it could be done... you'd probably want a system which used a electronically actuated AC compressor, rather than a belt driven one, since the AC compressor, when engaged, is a parasitic drain on the engine.

As for 1930s cars coming with them, it wasn't until 1939 that the first automotive AC system was available in a car.

Put AC ON car over heats?

Running the AC adds extra load to the engine and radiator. If the cooling fan, radiator, thermostat, or coolant level isn’t doing its job, that added heat can push the engine temperature too high. This often shows up in slow traffic or when idling. I saw a case like this at Stewart’s Automotive of Sacramento where a driver said the car overheated only with the AC on. After checking it out, the issue turned out to be a weak radiator fan that wasn’t moving enough air at low speeds. Once the fan was replaced, the car stayed at normal temperature—even with the AC blasting.
