Is it possible to execute a certain file/process directly from the cab file
once it has finished installing?

No. You would normally use somekind of install application running on the
desktop which does this via RAPI.

Yes you can, but you have to write own version of setup.dll [1] (using
eVC which is freely available). The function Install_Exit will be called
after installation is complete.

You can find it useful to see an example of setupdll from SDK [2] or
read this article [3].
