Is it possiblet o run a Skyatcher Dobsonian goto with laptop only?

Hi, Just working on a bit of a project.
What i am trying to do is run a Skywatcher Dobsonian that has goto via a laptop only, eliminating the hand controller.

I have this setup working great on a Skywatcher AZ-EQ6 mount, but that is a different thing all together.

So basically is it at all possible to do this?

The hand controller is the version that has the USB in the hand controller
I want to be able if possible run ASCOM, driving APT, Satllerium, PHD2

I am not sure if it is possible or not though.
So basically for now without out going into too much detail, just looking to see if it is possible or not?

Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Peter.
