I don't think so.  The only way is to load the program via a .cmd file, then
change the directory with the .cmd file after it exits.  This is how JCD
does it.

Here's my .cmd file, I modified the one that came with JCD (a Norton like
NCD, but better!) but this is basically it.

  {at}echo off
  if "%1" == "" goto jcd1
  cd %1 1>NUL 2>NUL
  if NOT errorlevel 1 goto TheEnd
:jcd1
  jcd1 %1
  if errorlevel 1 goto TheEnd
::  q  e:\jcd-file.cmd
  call e:\jcd-file.cmd
  del  e:\jcd-file.cmd /n/f
:TheEnd
  cls
  dir
