yes that is something that can be scripted.
Though you probably want a few further pointers
You can use the
cp command to do the copying, the return value of the previous command is

sendmail binary can be used to send a mail from the command line with the -t flag (this may need adaption depending onb your site setup), and the whole lot can be scheduled with
cron.
