Is it or will it be possible to make recursive relations?

Not automatically. But possible:

var model = new SomeModel();
model.set({childModels: [model]});
console.log(model.get('childModels'))

Full snippet would be:

var SomeModel = Backbone.AssociatedModel.extend({
    relations: [{
        type: Backbone.Many,
        key: 'childModels',
        relatedModel: function(){ // pass function or string
            return SomeModel;
        }
    }],
    defaults: {
        childModels: [],
        name: 'test'
    }
});

model = new SomeModel();
model.set({childModels: [model]});
console.log(model.get('childModels'));

Let me know if it helps.

Thank you. I was trying to put 'relations' key as a function not 'relatedModel'. Seems it will work fine.
