Depends on the kind of support you want. It is relatively easy to define an environment
\startasymptote
....
\stopasymptote
such that the content of the environment is processed by asympotote and read back as an image (using the filter module). With some effort, it is also possible to pass variables from context to asymptote. The reverse communication is more complicated but not really needed for 3D drawing.
