Given that UML is oriented towards a more classic approach to object orientation, is it still usable in a reliable way to design javascript systems?

One specific problem that I can see is that class diagrams are, in fact, a structural view of the system, and javascript is more behaviour driven, how can you deal with it?

Please, keep in mind that I'm not talking abot the real world domain here, It's a model for the solution that I'm trying to achieve.
