Using a .OBJ file in a resource pack?

I made a fox model, but due to the need to be able to rotate things on more than 1 axis at a time, I used .OBJ. But now I don't know how to actually use that file with a resource pack, or if it's even possible?
TL;DR:
Can you use .OBJ models in resource packs? If so, how?

For my knowledge, .json's are what works (never been able to use .obj's). But if you use Optifine, your fox model can be custom and converted to .jem's.
Some reference, I have been reading about 'obj's (but have not done it yet):

I'm sorry but I don't understand any of this, I don't even have the option of export options, and I'm assuming that's what's breaking it rn.

In blockbench, you have to select "java block/item" model, many people make the mistake of choosing "generic model". If you made this mistake, then on your model under the file tab, select convert model, and select "java block/item" (don't remember the exact name). Then you should have the option to export as a .json file.

I cannot convert the .OBJ into a .JSON because if I do so, it will lose the multiple rotations because the default Minecraft model doesn't allow multiple rotations on different axis.

well, if its not a default minecraft model, it will not work in minecraft, so exporting is not the problem.
