tor && firefox
On successful launch of tor, it will launch firefox. Put it in your .bashrc file like so:
alias mozilla="tor && firefox"
because there is probably already a mozilla alias pointing to firefox.

In that case, someone may know a better way to do it, but I would write
a bash script that started the program tor, and then firefox using the
specific profile. I don't remember the command-line options to do this
atm, but I know they exist and should be easy to find with firefox
--help. Oh, OK, I just ran that to make sure it was a legal command, so
the switch you'd want is:
-P <profile> Start with <profile>.
Once that's done, you can run the script from an alias, or an
icon/menu/panel/launcher, or of course directly from the terminal.
HTH,
