Why do you want spotlights in a bathroom?
What small/individual features in the room do you want to illuminate?
What form of lighting have you got for general room illumination?

If by spotlights you mean the small round recessed halogen downlighters fitted into the ceiling, then provided they are suitable for use in a bathroom, pretty much any type could be dimmed.
Make sure the dimmer is a decent one, and can actually be used with halogen lamps.
If the lamps are 12V types, also ensure that the dimmer and transformers are compatible.
However dimming halogen lamps is a bad idea since it will shorten their lifespan significantly.
Halogen downlighters are a grossly inefficient way to provide lighting.
What would be the point of dimmable lights in a bathroom anyway?
