I want my post's featured image show as a full width hero image. I have tried to set the featured images as background images in a full-width row, but I think it is not possible.

If anyone have the answer or a way to set the featured image as a hero, then please suggest.

You need to look at how your theme is rendering the hero image. Then, before it does so, add an if block which checks for a featured image. If a featured image exists, replace the hero image with it. Your code will look something like this.

if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
  // render hero image using the_post_thumbnail() instead
}
