I'm trying to write a 3D importer that imports a custom 3D format, is it possible to make it so it behaves like the .obj importer? (Marked as 3D object, 3D transform, depth buffer, etc.)

no, as far as i know.

importer AEGPS known as IO and FBIO only parse a requested frame and pass it to AE as am image. as far as i know 3D behavior is handled by the artizan plugin which does full comp rendering. (you can try to write an artizan, but you'll have to handle all other rendering as well...)
