When healing, can I roll a touch attack?

[claudekennilol]

Is there anything preventing me from rolling to touch my allies when I'm holding a heal charge? Thus, if I roll a twenty and confirm my touch, I would crit the heal?

Critical hits increase damage. Healing is not damage.

You can crit undead with a Cure spell, as that is damage instead of healing.

In addition to that.

After taking damage, you can recover hit points through natural healing or through magical healing. In any case, you can't regain hit points past your full normal hit point total.

No and no.
