You could certainly use the Trim Indicator value at offset 0BC2 to drive a motorised trim wheel. You'd want the motor driven directly by your electric trim rocker switches on the yoke when not using the A/P, only driven directly from the offset when the A/P is controlling it. You'd also need to stop it feeding back into the sim when the A/P is in control -- there's an FSUIPC option for that.

For the practical matters you'll want to post on the cockpit builders forums I think.
