If not you could maybe add a plugin compability (i.e. that you can run a program, dll or script on the map that does such things).
Not currently.
It should be simple enough to add plugin support. Would it be enough to pass command line parameters to an external app? Like map name and province count? What would you like to see?

Yeah, that would be completely fine. I think maybe along the lines of save as a temp file, start app with command line (temp file name + whatever is helpful, maybe number of provinces or memory offsets), wait and reload it to see the changes immediately.
But having the functions inbuilt would be a lot better.
