No.

(Unless you can find something really obscure in Pattern Action Language that I have not been able to find.)

You can't call a Unix routine from pattern action language in QS.

But it's possible to run a unix script from QS using the Program Stage,
which has a command line parameter. This comand line will be execute in the UNIX environment.

No, you can call them from any UNIX shell instead. You only need to call them from QualityStage if you need to execute them for every row processed. Don't expect speed.
