I think you may do so by installing a third-party lockscreen.

Chronus widget for lockscreen

Found this widget for my lockscreen. There is a free version in the market.
Shows you weather and even upcoming appointments.
Beautiful! !!

Maybe I should explain how you can get this as your standard lockscreen widget so you see it when you push the power button.
Enable multiple widgets in lockscreen options. Now go to your lockscreen, hold the clock and swipe to the right. You will see a plus sign there. Add the chronus widget. Tap this widget and hold it. Swipe it to the right of the standard clock. Now it will be your standard lockscreen widget.

I would like to use this widget... I was using it on m Galaxy S3 with a custom rom... I even bought the "pro" version...
but sadly, Samsung has made a choice to disable all widgets when you have some type of lockscreen security.
I can not remove the security because it's mandatory when you have a VPN configured (I have one to connect to my home or work network).

can we change the lockscreen wallpaper?

can i change the lockscreen wallpaper?? and to have different home wallpaper and screenlock wallpaper
Get a app called HI Locker. It changes the lock screen wallpaper and also let you set up to 6 targets on the lockscreen like as if it was a custom ROM

How do I add new widgets...

to the list of those available on the lockscreen? Just to be clear, the list of available widgets is limited on the lock screen.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You'll need a third party lockscreen that supports all widgets. With the stock lock screen, that ability needs to be included in the .apk. Perhaps you can send a message to the developer of the app and ask them for lock screen widget support.
Good to know. I was hoping I could use root explorer to drag from one folder to another so the lockscreen could see the widget.
