I don't know how you would do that but you may move the file
after you invoke cpack by doing:

ADD_CUSTOM_TARGET(my_package_source
 COMMAND ${CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM} package_source
 COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy
${CPACK_SOURCE_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME}.tar.gz ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/package
 COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E remove ${CPACK_SOURCE_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME}.tar.gz
)

this is not "nice" but it should work.

CONFIGURE_FILE(${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/package/thefile
                             ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/package/thefile
                             COPYONLY)


should work

I don't know if you can "MODIFY" the target.
