Yes a lot of major ISPs can do that. You usually have a commitment rate of say 100mbps and pay excess fees if your 95th falls above it. They provide tools and stuff to monitor it as well if you want to do some fuckery on your side to not eat a gigantic bill one month.

Edit: Of note, above is for commercial connections. I don't know residential providers that do that.
