When I was using calibre-web, I regularly synced the calibre library with rsync to the calibre-web server (a Raspberry Pi). Calibre-web then reconnected to the database overnight so that the changes were visible (can also be done manually, of course). So I only had to call the sync script when needed.

With vanilla calibre-web, no.
There is a new project called automated calibre web or something similar that addresses this and other quality-of-life issues.
This one? https://github.com/crocodilestick/Calibre-Web-Automated It has an ingest folder you can drop all your books into and it'll ingest and process them over time, if that's of interest
