This is not possible, you can only use AppBarButton and AppBarToggleButton. Apps like IE and the app store where you can see rectangular buttons in the command bar, are special apps in which Microsoft can do whathever they want.

But you could try to implement your own custom CommandBar that immitates the system command bar, but this seems like too much work and error prone.

This project aims to create useful controls for WinRT (Windows Phone, Windows 8.1, and later XBOX One). The first one is a customizable AppBar control, which is in a early stage of development.

You can use this app bar to suit your requirements.
