I would say that if you have a specific behavior which is not configurable
with the CMake provided NSIS.template.in
you'll better craft your own NSIS.template.in
which may contain as much specificities as you need.

I mean not only adding "include Library.nsh" but whatever
other NSIS installer code you need.

Then after that if the "install driver DLL" thing is of general
interest may be you can report a bug and propose a generic
modification of the mainstream NSIS.template.in  provided with cmake.
