Anything is possible; the question is how logical is it, and how easy or 
hard :-)

 From the logical standpoint:
    CTRL-J doesn't work on a single mesh; it works on two or more 
meshes.  More accurately, it works on two or more objects.  So its API 
would be some function like
         Blender.Mesh.Join([ob1,ob2,ob3])

     I'm trying to think of a similar interface to a "tool" in the 
API... ????

 From an easy/hard standpoint:
    Probably not too hard; the BPy API function would probably check 
that it was possible to join the objects (they're mesh objects, etc) and 
we would need to change join_mesh() itself so it didn't throw up a " 
Join selected meshes?" dialog.
