Probably not. Thunderbird does not have an API so is not easily linked into automated processes.

You can invoke Thunderbird by assembling a message via its command line, but what this does is set up a message with the available data filled in, and it waits for the user to click on Send. Would that be acceptable?

See the section headed "Compose new mail with command line".
