There is a fork of GZDoom that was used for PSX and Doom64 TCs. It has a "pagedefs" file that can be used to script movies from images stored in the PK3. So it basically does what you suggest, but in a dedicated control lump kind of way.

I have no idea how "clean" it is code-wise (i.e. Graf et al may be able to come up with something better) but I have suggested that it might be considered for inclusion in GZDoom when the devs are less busy with their current, quite considerable, priorities.

There isn't, and likely will never be an official way for GZDoom to play movie files.

Only if you spit them in frames and show them in sequence on screen.

I know that the movie playing function was deprecated in a previous release, so I was wondering if their is a currently supported method of playing movie/video files. Thanks!
