No. Not the way you're imagining it, at least.

Because nobody coded it. Are _you_ volunteering to spend 50 hours
working on this?

lilypond is completely impractical for this; you'll save much more
time by writing the midi files directly. I'm sure there's some
libraries that help with this; there's certainly midi packages for
python, perl, and such scripting languages.
