As you can see from Mathieu's response, and the links he provided, building C# stuff from CMake is certainly possible with lots of custom command mojo.
As the guy who wrote that mojo for mummy and activizdotnet, and the guy who closed the bug in our issue tracker until a funder/volunteer comes along (still waiting...), I'm certainly in the position to say: it's possible, but not as pretty as you'd like it to be... Let us know if you tackle it via the custom command route. Another option these days would be to have csproj files and build them via ExternalProject and devenv or msbuild command lines. (Which is really just custom commands under the hood...)
