Not AFAIK as a command line option.

Nonetheless, let me present to you a strategy:

* use --cmd to set up a BufReadPre autocmd, which will be triggered when
starting to edit a buffer but before the file is read into the buffer
* have the BufReadPre autocmd do whatever it is you want and then to
remove itself
