Yes, you'd need to modify your command shell to add an option to those menus. It's fairly easy to do.
If you're using the default command shell, it's written in Baja.  Under the sections for those menus, you'd need to add an option and have it call EXEC_XTRN with the internal code of the door you want to run.  Refer to the Synchronet Baja guide:
http://synchro.net/docs/baja.html

Also, some more information about Synchronet command shells:

There is a JavaScript equivalent to that as well, though I think it's probably more likely your command shell is written in Baja.
