Is it possible to get the DOM object of the URL/webpage which i'm testing it, through the webpage test API?

What do you mean by "the DOM object"? Which one and how do you want to "get" it (serialized as JSON)?

You could use a custom metric that runs after the test to extract whatever you want from the page and return it (available as --custom through the API).

I have a node.js program and i'm passing a URL (eg: www.google.com) to wpt.runTest method. once the test completes , I would like to get the entire view source of the page. Is it possible to get?

--bodies will turn on the capture of response bodies for text resources (including the base page).The result will then include a "bodies" entry which is a zip file of all of the bodies.

If you know the request number that you want the body for (usually the first unless redirects are involved) then you can request just that body with something like: http://www.webpagetest.org/response_body.php?test=141113_DX_27f460845ddf4d2033d45822727afc4c&run=1&cached=0&request=1

It's worth noting that response bodies are not available for some browser configurations:
Chrome - any HTTPS bodies are not available
IE & Firefox - bodies for SPDY-served requests are not available
Mobile Devices - bodies are not available at all.
