When creating a Zope Product:
1) Is it possible to use ZPT instead of DTML for management views?
Yep.  Use:

from Products.PageTemplates.PageTemplateFile import PageTemplateFile

class my_class:

    some_mgt_page = PageTemplateFile('path_from_product_folder', globals())
...
2) If it is possible, are there downsides?
None I'm aware of.
...
3) Whether it's possible or not, is there any reason why the Zope Book
doesn't mention it to forestall people like me from asking what is likely a
FAQ?  <wink>
Inertia and DTML's perception as easier, perhaps.  That or nobody has 
written it yet. :-)

HTH,
