I would like to know if after mounting a win 3.1 image and booting into it (not run the win command so no gui yet) is it possible to send a command to dosbox from within the now booted "windows environment".

Depends on what you want to achieve...
If you want to do the same thing all the time, use the autoexec.bat on the image.
If you want to input other things use the keyboard 😉
Using the keyboard canbe done via programs like autohotkey on Windows or Apllescript on OS X. With these you can have events, for example on the host system something gets writren to a file and that writing is then send as keystrokes to dosbox.
But I guess you just want the autoexec.bat 😉
