Having a Spyglass in offhand will zoom in when using a crossbow

Very self-explanatory. 😉

I have seen several other ideas for combining the spyglass and crossbow, but all of them include creating a new item (ex. combining in a smithing table). What I am suggesting would be a good way to not add to many extra items, and introduce a con to this setup: there can't be any thing else in your offhand.

  good idea for implementing the zoom while shooting without combining the items :)

  Unless Bedrock is given offhand wielding capability (at this time, you can only equip a shield), I vote no, but would support it being a part of crafting.

  Features - especially something functional like this which could allow for more interesting combat play - should be introduced equally in both versions of the game.

  Two comments on this.
  One, in response to another comment's argument of disparity with Bedrock-- the fact you can "only equip a shield" is actually false, though the offhand is still limited in Bedrock. Other items such as arrows, tipped arrows, fireworks, totems of undying, maps, etc. are also allowed in the offhand. The spyglass could simply be another.
  Two, making this apply to bows too. Maybe only apply the zoom when sneaking for both crossbow and bow, so drawing and firing can be distinct from aiming?
