How can I draw the trefoil knot in 3D co-ordinates in Latex using these parametric equations?

I think that the key here is to put more samples. This is your code, with 100 samples. I changed the domain too, from 0 to 2pi, because yours draws everything twice. I also added a view more alike to the plot in WA that you linked.

documentclass[border=2mm]{standalone}
usepackage {pgfplots}
pgfplotsset{compat=1.17}

begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
  begin{axis}[view={30}{55}]
  addplot3[red,variable=t,samples=100,domain=0:2*pi]
    ({sin(deg(t))+2*sin(deg(2*t))},{cos(deg(t))-2*cos(deg(2*t))}, {-sin(deg(3*t))});
  end{axis}
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}

This is basic Asymptote code:

//
// trefoil.asy
// 
// to get trefoil.png, run
// asy -f png -render=4 trefoil.asy
// 
// to view it in internal Asymptote 3d-viewer, run
// asy -V trefoil.asy
// 
import graph3;
import tube;

size(200,0);
currentlight.background=paleyellow+opacity(0.0);
currentprojection=orthographic(camera=(-40,9,70), up=Z);

real x(real t){return sin(t)+2sin(2t);}
real y(real t){return cos(t)-2cos(2t);}
real z(real t){return -sin(3t);}

guide3 g=graph(x,y,z, 0, 2pi,operator..);

draw(tube(g,circle((0,0),0.618)),white);

Slightly more involved version:

If this is not a nice plot of a trefoil knot, then I don't know what is.

Edit:

And this is a one-sided version (kind of):

import graph3;
import tube;

size(200,0);
currentlight.background=paleyellow+opacity(0.0);
currentprojection=orthographic(camera=(-10,49,-58),up=(0.92,0.36,0.14));

real x(real t){return sin(2pi*t)+2sin(2*2pi*t);}
real y(real t){return cos(2pi*t)-2cos(2*2pi*t);}
real z(real t){return -sin(3*2pi*t);}
guide3 g=graph(x,y,z, 0, 1,operator..);
