The present VTK-Python code works in just that way.  VTK is written in
C++ and the classes are exposed to Python and used from Python.  You
could look at how its done for VTK-Python and do the same thing.

If you want to use vtkpython at the Python side of things you could do
this by doing the following:

  """When you instantiate a class, you can provide a hexidecimal string
  containing the address of an existing vtk object, e.g.

   t = vtkTransform('_1010e068_vtkTransform_p')

  The string follows SWIG mangling conventions.  If a wrapper for the
  specified object already exists, then that wrapper will be used
  rather than a new wrapper being created.  If you want to use this
  feature of vtkpython, please think twice."""

This was taken from vtk3.2's python/python.txt.
