Yes it is possible to add 3d widgets from plugins.  I've added a specialized 
contour widget from a plugin.  I added a custom panel to use those 3d 
widgets.
You'll have to write both server and client side code, and I don't think there 
is a wiki to say how, so you can look at the pqCutPanel and 
pqImplicitPlaneWidet code in ParaView3/Qt/Components and start there.
