Doesn't it look pointless? If this is a JavaScript library, why not using it for a usual browser-based application? What would be the role of System.Windows.Forms, just to limit the widest cross-platform repertoire of JavaScript? :-)
If you have a good reason to use .NET and forms, talk about this reason first, as this is the most important thing in your issue...

It could be possible if you implement a web browser control inside the form and then display a website i.e. javascript / D3.
However, there maybe some compatibility issues that you will need to work out.

Come to think about, it would be the only realistic approach. Or nearly so. My 5.
I would question the whole idea of coupling .NET and JavaScript for this purpose, but I can understand where it comes from. Both .NET and JavaScript+D3 are very powerful, but the flimsy link would be binding between them. Passing data to JavaScript could be done by generating some script code on the fly. I guess, generating and passing JSON data would be of great help, as JSON is implemented on both sides.
