While Javascript is the de facto standard for client-side scripting, it is 
possible to use Python. But you shouldn't: Python is not designed with the 
sort of sand-boxing and security needed to run untrusted code over the 
Internet. But if you only care about running code within your own trusted 
intranet, it should be perfectly doable.

A better idea may be to use a templating engine, server-side Python, e.g. 
using Django, CherryPy, or similar, or use Pyjamas to convert Python to 
Javascript.
