No, I'm afraid not.
Using cpp was a bad idea, and running ly2dvi as filter causes troubles.
You could process the input with the m4 preprocessor instead:
define(gracen,\slurDown \grace {$1 8 () s} \slurBoth)
- and call the macro the same way as with cpp.
save the file as file.mly and running
m4 file.mly
expands the macros as expected - but I cannot figure out how to pass the
result on to ly2dvi - except ofcourse
m4 file.mly >file.ly ; ly2dvi file
Which works (Yeah, I tried it this time) but is a bit tedious.

No, I am quite sure that this will never be implemented in lilypond.
If one could just run ly2dvi as a filter then it would be no problem to
run it like this, either.

Yes, I guess you have to stick with that.
