cPanel Cron backup trigger

Can a cron command be crafted to trigger a backup through the provided manual trigger link such as this one?

http://www.domain.com/wp-cron.php?_nonce=f2b2e799&backwpup_run=runext&jobid=1

If I go to this address from a browser the backup is triggered, as designed. Can a cPanel cron command do the same, but on a schedule? I’ve tried the following crons without success.

php -q /path to the above link/ – it does not like a of the parameters attached to the link address

php -q /path to a jump page that jumps to the above link/ – no success

Is in possible to build a php file that executes the above address or is there any other way to trigger the backup through a cPanel cron?

Thanks in advance!
