I wonder whether it would be possible for a nation to use rockets on asteroids ?

Question

to use as potential weapon against other nations not unlike an orbiting atomic bomb

see link above to know what I mean

Answer 1

I'd guess any nation capable of carrying out that insanely difficult and expensive stunt would rather elect to use a good old fashioned sub orbital ballistic missile to drop an actual nuke, and call it a day.

Answer 2

sure if the enemy is using the asteroid tolaunch an attack or as sort of guantanamo prison camp.
