Is there any way to get out of a 3rd degree assault charge if you hit someone first?

Usually if the police have you nailed to the wall, there isn't any way to get out of an assault charge. However, some states have "provokation" as a defense to prosecution. What that means is that if a normal, average, "reasonable man" would have been so provoked by what happened to you that they too would have hit first, you might be able to have the charge reduced to a lesser offense (or even dropped).
