Yes, if it is possible.

We use that because it is what the IDE uses when creating a project file
so using it makes the command visible in the IDE properties.  It also handles
all the dependencies and such instead of always executing, and is the only
way to get proper semantics we've found.  If no setting is available then
I think the solution is "don't do that" :(

I'm not very familiar with it either.  I see something that looks like a
definition of the CustomBuild target type in files like these:

 c:/Program Files (x86)/MSBuild/Microsoft.Cpp/v4.0/Microsoft.CppCommon.targets
 c:/Program Files 
(x86)/MSBuild/Microsoft.Cpp/v4.0/V110/Microsoft.CppCommon.targets
 c:/Program Files 
(x86)/MSBuild/Microsoft.Cpp/v4.0/V120/Microsoft.CppCommon.targets
 c:/Program Files 
(x86)/MSBuild/Microsoft.Cpp/v4.0/V140/Microsoft.CppCommon.targets
