That's not really fair - you can implement Accessibility within Carbon, it just takes some effort.

Is there any way to make that from another application?

You could potentially generate the requisite events (clicks and keystrokes), but this seems fairly fragile.

Isn't it possible to change this parameter into the application preferences directly ?
If the application uses standards preferences API, you can do this using the "defaults" command line tool (and do a shell script).
Or just copy a preconfigured preferences file on all your computers.
