Yes, you could. Most likely the ticket would be overdriving the road conditions.
Second Answer: You could get a ticket for failure to drive defensively and failure to slow down in the rain. The cop would have to see you doing the irresponsible driving that caused the hydroplaning.
NO, hydroplaning itself would not be an offence, imagine how hard it would be to spot, You would be prosecuted for the offence that caused you to hydroplain if you had an accident that was found to be caused by it, usually it is caused by low tyre tread.
If the rain was particularly bad and the surface water particularly deep then dangerous driving might be the charge if you were driving too fast and crashed.
There are many places where one could see the act of hydroplaning in action. The best place to see hydroplaning in action would be on a street on a wet day and a car slides on the wet street.
