Generally, no.  This is found in the POV-Ray Documentation.  This is because
POV-Ray uses words to describe shapes (e.g. box { ... }, sphere { ... })
rather than fixed points/nurbs/triangles/etc, which is what 3ds or obj
uses.  Reverse conversion is possible, however, because meshes and the like
can be used in POV-Ray when converted into the necessary text-based format.
 You may find it easier simply to use POV-Ray.
