If you really want to use Borland C, you probably can. It becomes even easier if they allow a nice-looking inline assembler notation.
Don't see why you *want* to, however.

interfacing Borland code and nasm code do work (in my experience) as long as you use the proper output format (obj files). Now, unless you plan to have your OS running in realmode, i'm not sure Borland will be the best choice (unless someone knows of a version of BC that can generate 32-bit code, of course: i haven't used borland tools this millenium
).

Borland has lots of newer compilers that's 32-bit, it's just the free versions thats 16-bit only.
