This is often done already. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if this is how they track things down. Silicon die usually have some burnable fuses that can be set once and at some point during manufacturing the wafer lot number and even XY coordinates of the die on the wafer are recorded. It helps track down yield issues.

Each chiplet will itself have up to 100,000 transistors and include a two-way radio, data encryption engine and way to detect tampering—all while consuming under 50 microwatts (50 millionths of a watt) and costing less than one penny each. Identifying information on each dielet would be read using a penlike probe plugged into a smartphone.. a dielet would be inductively powered by the probe, which would communicate via radio frequency signals when placed within a half millimeter of the chiplet. The probe would relay encrypted information to an app on the smartphone.
