Hi!
Yes, POV-Ray supports loops

This creates 10 red spheres along the x axis:

camera {
    location <5, 0, -10>
    look_at  <5, 0,  0>
}

#declare Q = 0;
#while (Q < 10)

sphere {<Q,0,0>,.5
    texture {pigment { rgb <1,0,0> }}
}

#declare Q = Q+1;
#end

light_source { <0,0,-5> rgb 1}

Hope that helps!

(Check out the docs [6.2.6.4]  The #while...#end Directive)
