Could the Tomcat Maven Plugin help with this?

You can use it by using the command tomcat:run

This page describes how to set up your POM/settings to make calling the plugin easier (using a prefix vs having to use full groupId/artifactId of plugin on the command line).

Maybe you can have a look at the executable war/jar feature see http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-2/executable-war-jar.html So that will produce a simple jar which contains tomcat classes. You will be able to simply run: java -jar pathtofile.jar.
