Normally, the bear can chicken is made on a grill. I would like to make it in the oven if possible.

Yes you can make beer can chicken in the oven. If you usually use wood chips on the grill to get that smokey flavor that will be missing from the oven cooked chicken but the chicken will still come out exceptionally moist and flavorfull just like on the grill.
Memphis rub
1/4 cup paprika
1 tablespoon firmly packed dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon celery salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 to 3 teaspoons cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Combine all ingredients in a jar, twist lid on airtight, and shake to mix. Store away form heat and light ofr up to 6 months.
1 large whole chicken (4 to 5 pounds)
1 tablespoon oil
3 tablespoons Memphis Rub
1 can (12 ounces) beer
Rinse chicken in cold water and pat dry. Rub oil on outside skin of chicken. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of rub inside the body and neck cavities. Sprikle 1 tablespoon rub all over the skin of the bird. Pop the tab on the beer. Using "church-key" style can opener make 6 holes in top of the beer can. Pour out the top inch of beer and slowly spoon remaining rub through the holes into the beer. Hold chicken upright and insert beer can into the cavity.
Placed chicken upright (spread legs to act as a tripod) in a 350 Degree preheated grill (in-direct heat),or place chicken upright on a jelly-roll pan and place in a 350 Degree oven. Cook chicken for 2 hours. Using tongs, lift bird to cutting board or platter, holding beer can underneath with a large metal spatula. Let stand for 5 minutes before carving. If you wish you can carefully remove chicken from beer can to carve.

I assume you mean beer can chicken.
I have done it in the oven. Roast at 350 degrees for about 1 1/2 hours. The skin should be golden brown.
