Yes, you could do it by emulating what the CGI interface does. You will need to write a perl script that would create a restore request file using Data::Dumper (see the CGI code for an example), and then issue a restore command using BackupPC_serverMesg. Be careful you don't end up with an infinite loop, where the second restore triggers a third, etc... See bin/BackupPC_archiveStart for an example of the basic steps, since this script does a similar thing for archives as you want to do with restores.
