The simple answer: no.
Here’s why. While the server is running in campaign mode, it treats the entire thing as “one big map.” So you can run commands at the end of a campaign but there’s not way to specify commands to be run between maps. Campaign rotations are defined by the .campaign files in the scripts directory. Since these only list the maps to cycle through, you don’t have any place to send commands to the server console or execute other scripts.
You could do this while running in objective mode, since the objectivecycle.cfg only calls specific maps and leaves you room to add these server commands. Unfortunately, with stock ET you can’t carry over xp. I know Shrub has a setting that lets you get around this, only resetting xp when you tell it to.
