Depp is suing Heard for $50million (£40million) over an article in which she claimed she was a victim of abuse.
But the 35-year-old star of the Aquaman films has countersued for $100million.
Moss, 48, is expected to appear at the court in Virginia, US, via video link, according to sources close to Depp.
She will likely be asked about a rumoured incident in the 1990s when she was dating Depp, in which he allegedly pushed her down the stairs.
Kate was at the height of her fashion fame when she dated Depp — a young idol after starring in Edward Scissorhands — between 1994 and 1997.
The pair reportedly remained close.
The alleged stairs incident was brought up by Heard who said she was reminded of it in 2015 at her Los Angeles apartment when Depp allegedly tried to punch her sister Whitney.
Heard told the jury: “I just, in my head, instantly think of Kate Moss and stairs.”

But by mentioning the alleged episode, Heard enabled Depp’s legal team to call Moss to rebut the claim.
Depp’s lawyers were seen fist bumping in celebration at the time.
The case is in its final week. Depp may give evidence for a third time.
