I suppose you could use a cron job to do that (in the way you could use a cron job to essentially run any command). At the very least I do not see any reason for it not to work. >I don't think I have shell access, or at least I don't know enough about it if I do. >It looks like that line is the only thing I need to add, so is that the only place where I need to substitute things? >What does DB_HOST change to?

In order to run the mysql command you have above, you need shell access, so if you can do that, then you do have shell access. If you don't have shell access, then you cannot run that command. (You can also use phpmyadmin to import the confirmAccount.sql file) DB_HOST is the server where your mysql server is located. In your LocalSettings.php file is the config setting
