Yes, your' right. Asciidoctor does not have AsciiDoc code generation like this.
But there are many ways to do that:
- Split the docs and add tags in a way you can use includes to build the table.
- You can always resort to any pre-task (Java, bash,...) to generate code during your build pipeline.
- Extension to build it dinamically.

On the other hand, it seems to be your are trying to build some kind of TOC?
