Yeah wasm is definitely getting interesting as a platform for these. As long as you can build/compile a language VM (such as the Python VM) or a language compiler itself in wasm there shouldn't be much stopping you.

Thinks like that have been done even with plain JS and the results are very cool, see e.g. SqueakJS, a Squeak/Smalltalk VM implemented directly in JS.
