[SalesForce] Placing Server Side JavaScript within AMPscript

Is there anyway to place Server Side JavaScript within AMPScript?

For example i have a JavaScript function getLink() which returns a link and i want to place it within a AMPscript TreatAsContent function like the below.

%%=TreatAsContent(getLink())=%%

Obviously this won't work as i probably need to exit the AMPScript, enter JS,exit JS then renter AMPSCript. But not sure of the correct syntax to do this. Anyone have an idea how to do this?

At the moment i pass the JavaScript value returned from getLink() to AMPSCript.

//Declare AMP script variable
%%[var @link]%%

//Get link and pass to ampscript @link variable
<script runat=server>
var link= getLink();
Variable.SetValue("link",link);
</script>

//Place link in a <a> tag
<a href="%%=TreatAsContent(@link)=%%">Link</a>

No - this is not possible. You would want to exit and enter the different languages. See documentation

Side note - if you are attempting to use SSJS in email, don't. It's very slow and will produced poor send speeds.
