It's possible in the 3DM format to attach custom "user data" to objects, which will just be skipped by other readers that don't understand it.
But unfortunately that's only one small portion of what's involved in implementing something like this - maintaining the comments through different operations on objects and in particular planning and setting up the UI for such things can involve quite a bit of work.

Right now there isn't any way set up for that to be scriptable.
One thing that might work for you currently though is to assign some sort of ID tag to a particular object as the object name, and then in a separate document written in a word processor or text editor, keep a paragraph of comments associated with that ID tag.
