There is only partial support for elevations, or any other dimension. But it is not possible to cache tiles in these dimensions. 

You can pass parameters to your source with forward_req_params: http://mapproxy.org/docs/nightly/sources.html#forward-req-params

And you can create WMTS services with dimensions, but again, without caching:
