Just call the m-file or function file inside octave. To be able to do
that,
you have to make sure, that the matlab-m-files are on your
path-search-list 
of octave. type
"octave > LOADPATH" 
to check that. If they are not on your search-path include them into
your searchpath.
Try help "LOADPATH" if you don't know how.

What you probably want is something similar to matlab's "engine", right?
Well I have no ideas about that. Read the docu or hopefully somebody
else 
knows more about it.
