You can perform assignment that way in ZPT. First it is bad style.
You really want to prepare your data inside a PythonScript, call
the script from a ZPT and re-use the data as returned from the script.
If you don't want follow that road, try this:

tal:define="dummy python: somedict.update({key:value})"
