It is relatively easy.
You can create a touter which calls a "custom" transport.

The router could look like this:
mypipe_router:
        domains         = internal.domain.tld
        driver          = accept
        require_files   = /home/example/mycommand
        local_part_suffix_optional
        transport       = newspipe



The transport could be like this:

mypipe:
        driver          = pipe
        command         = /home/example/mycommand
        return_path_add = false
        return_fail_output = true
        log_output      = true
        home_directory  = "/tmp"
        current_directory = "/tmp"
        group           = groupname
