MapBasic is one of the slowest langauges available and not well suited
for such a computation intensive task. But I can't think of anything
which should make it impossible. But you would have to stick to small
datasets since mapbasic only supports rather small datasets. Or perhaps
calculation time / lack of patience becomes the limiting factor.

Thiessen polygons are also known as Voronoi polygons or natural
neighborhood. You can find it included in ToolBox from RouteWare.
