You can't, unless you also have an iPhone using the same Apple ID.

If you do, see below:

  • On iPhone: If you do, make sure in Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding > Your mac should be listed here
  • On Mac: Open Messages > Preferences... > Accounts > your phone number should be listed in Start a new conversations from
