You can't "use it", only inline it into a calling template.  E.g.:

  ##Script (Python) "random_macro"
  from random import choice # may need module security assertion
  macros = context.some_template.macros
  macro1 = macros['one']
  macro2 = macros['two']
  macro3 = macros['three']
  return choice((macro1, macro2, macro3))

The template would just do:

   <div metal:use-macro="context/random_macro" />
