Yes, you can use OctaneMaxFPI.VPAddPass with the pass ID

To get the pass ID of a "Custom AOV xx" :
Enable a Custoom AOV pass by hand, and get the list of pass IDs with
lst = OctaneMaxFPI.VPGetPassList()
that should show something like
#(0, 505)

or just do
passID = OctaneMaxFPI.VPPassIdFromName "Custom AOV 5"

then, enable the pass, with for example:
OctaneMaxFPI.VPAddPass 505
OctaneMaxFPI.VPAddPass passID

see more detail here:

Render passes access from MaxScript

Hopefully those IDs and names should never change in the future, but you could add a sanity check in your scripts..
