Still not supported directly in the toolset but it doesn't take much to do it.  
I have a modified WixStdBA here 
https://github.com/jchoover/wix3/tree/develop-3.9-WixStdBA

If you are using your own BA, you can model it after the changes I made to 
Wix's own BA in src/Setup/WixBA/UpdateViewModel.cs

As for the application triggering the update, you can create a stub DLL to 
expose the methods inside of butil.cpp (part of dutil.lib).

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] how to auto-update like ClickOnce in WIX

Hi

Is there an update to the information that Rob shared on Feb 2014? What is 
possible today?

http://sourceforge.net/p/wix/mailman/message/31962990/
"It's not hard but there is nothing built into WiX toolset today to do it. 
There is a feature under development to do self-update for bundles that could 
help a lot building an auto-update system.

You just have to connect a few more dots today"

Thanks,
