It is possible to configure multiple type of terminals in IntelliJ IDEA e.g. cmd, powershell, git bash, etc. ?

Not possible at the moment, but there is a related feature request: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-156939
IntelliJ IDEA 2021.2 (released July 27, 2021) introduces just this feature. While it is not explicitly mentioned in the detailed Release Notes nor documented yet, IntelliJ now at start-up scans a list of predefined shell locations and, if it finds any, offers those via popup menu:
If you have your shells installed at non standard paths, eg. Git Bash at D:\progs\Git\ instead of the default C:\Program Files\Git\, IntelliJ will not detect it. An easy workaround is to symlink the default to your custom location, eg. mklink /j C:\Program Files\Git D:\progs\Git in an admin cmd.exe on Windows.
