One of my stoner friends suggested putting that into my chameleons cage and I was wondering if it could be done without harm to the chameleon and the plant?

I've heard cannabis plants can be very irritating to cham skin. And I would be very concerned about toxicity, possibly death, if it were to ingest any of the leaves. Your "stoner friend" should grow his pot elsewhere :)

No, chameleons rub their eyes on plants. Those plants have crystals that kind of burn a little when you get it in your eyes. Veileds eat plants. And crickets eat plants. Chameleons eat crickets. That is a plant. That particular plant is very dangerous for animals to ingest.

By the way, this thread will be deleted within an hour. :)

EDIT: also, the housing for a chameleon is not suitable for the plant if you want it to bud.

I think a 24x24x48 cage would be sufficent for a young plant

Why will my post be erased in an hour, I do not see anything wrong with it?
