Can I use functions while defining paths?

As others have said, the import statement takes identifiers, not
expressions.  More importantly, it's unusual to try to name a specific
absolute path in an import statement. The best thing is to install
libraries so that you can import them like this:

    import reader

If you can't import them, the next best thing is to use an environment
variable to adjust PYTHONPATH so that the library can be found:

    PYTHONPATH=D:\pyth_nonsens\workspace_python\PyhonTutorial python
myprog.py
