Is there a way to start a Cocktail WPF application with command line parameters?

There most certainly is. Are you asking how you start the process with command line parameters or how to obtain the parameters in your code?
 
If it's the latter, the command line parameters are part of the StartupEventArgs passed to the Application.Startup event. Simply override OnStartup in your bootstrapper and grab the parameters from the event args.

Alternatively, you can get them by calling Environment.GetCommandLineArgs().
