There are hooks, but it's tricky to get files from a client outside :-)
Usually they are used to stage from the queuemaster to the exec node and
back.
Some time ago I played with them and finally failed. There is no way to
move the output files completely as the staging process by itself is
still writing its STDOUT and STDERR to those files. And you need the
output to be able to debug the sometimes complex procedure... I finally
managed the whole file staging inside of the job script and used the
post script for a cleanup in case of a qdel.
