It's fairly straightforward to use the existing Ant tasks to request a build, and provide a custom Ant script to do so that acts like a command line tool.

Is there a way to request a build from the command-line?
No.
It is possible to start them using the web UI, however. Go to the web UI for your repo, go to the project area, select builds, open the list of build definitions, choose a build definition, then click on the little pile of rocks with an arrow in the upper right hand corner.
