Anything is possible!   ;)

How difficult and / or expensive it will be will depend on exactly what you have.   ???

In other words... More info please!   :D

Thanks for the additional information.  We also need to know for each of these which is IR (infra red) and which is RF (radio frequency).

I've done some more research and I may have to apologize for raising false hopes.  While there are both send RF functions and and an extended code function in AHP there is no extended code RF function which might have allowed you to hack the commands you needed.  Since there are various add ons available for X10 perhaps someone more familiar with them could chime in with a suggestion.
