target is client side, asp is server side so you will have to mix it:
<%
If Request.QueryString("open")="window" Then
    url = "window.asp"
    response.write("<script>" & vbCrLf)
    response.write("window.open('" & url & "');" & vbCrLf)
    response.write("</script>")
End If
%>
<a href="?open=window">open new window</a>
