Unless there is a *complete* Python to Javascript converter, or a *full* Python interpreter in JS (I know of neither, but I don't do much with Javascript), I wouldn't hold out much hope. I put "complete" and "full" in stars, because SymPy really uses every corner of the Python language. Anything that only handles a subset probably won't be able to handle the everything that SymPy uses.
That isn't to say it isn't possible, though. Is there some object oriented stack built on top of Javascript, preferably one similar to Python? If so, you may be able to convert the basic core concepts from SymPy. Also take a look at https://github.com/certik/sympyx and https://github.com/certik/csympy to see what more stripped down versions of the core might look like. Beyond that, the more algorithms you need, the more work that's cut out for you. Building a CAS is hard work. There's a reason there aren't too many of them.
