There certainly are coaches which go to Heathrow from Basingstoke
on their way to London, but obviously these may be full of people
heading for London (although from memory full coaches are unusual).
I don't know if there's a direct Basingstoke-Heathrow link though.

Coaches run from the Basingstoke bus station en route from Salisbury
to London, Victoria.
They call at Heathrow terminal 4 and then at Heathrow central bus
station, the journey time is approx 1 hour. Tickets have to be
purchased before boarding the coach.
Departures from Basingstoke :-
0545, 0645, 0745, 0915, 1100, 1230, 1530, 1830
Departures from heathrow :-
0935, 1235, 1535, 1705, 1835, 2005, 2205, 2305
When I have used the service the coach is around 75% full.

Yes there is a direct link to Heathrow from Basingstoke every 2
hours or so. It first stops at terminal 4 and proceeds to the
central bus station in Heathrow, and then continues on to Victoria.
The price is 7 pounds per period return. Or 5 pounds daily return.
To get the times of the buses just ring the bus station in basingstoke.

Ref .11
There are Basingstoke to Gatwick times in the National Express
time-table but for this you have to change at Victoria and it
takes nearly 3 hours so there's hardly any point in using it.
