From the FAQ:
Q: Can I use pre-made assets? A: Yes, but please ensure you have the legal rights to do so. Note that you will be asked if you or your team had created the art and/or audio for the game or not; this will be displayed publicly on your game's jam page.
I am not sure what you mean by an A* asset.
