maybe try like this but what results you expect?
Code:
ftp>!cd /your/script/path
ftp>!./yourscript.sh

and you can do execute some commands direct in the remote ftp session but some ftp servers.(below is VsFTPd)
try list your ftp commands
Code:
ftp> help
Commands may be abbreviated.  Commands are:
!               cr           mdir       proxy           send
$               delete       mget       sendport        site
account         debug        mkdir      put             size
append          dir          mls        pwd             status
ascii           disconnect   mode       quit            struct
bell            form         modtime    quote           system
binary          get          mput       recv            sunique
bye             glob         newer      reget           tenex
case            hash         nmap       rstatus         trace
ccc             help         nlist      rhelp           type
cd              idle         ntrans     rename          user
cdup            image        open       reset           umask
chmod           lcd          passive    restart         verbose
clear           ls           private    rmdir           ?
close           macdef       prompt     runique
cprotect        mdelete      protect    safe

you must use the ssh for remote exectuion for security reasons.Smilie

FTP is very simple and stupid. It transfers files. It is not a shell.
