There are multiple existing third-party tools in the ecosystem that let you do exactly that: - https://github.com/gsoft-inc/craco - https://github.com/harrysolovay/rescripts - https://github.com/timarney/react-app-rewired - https://github.com/arackaf/customize-cra No, they're not "officially" supported, and you basically void the warranty by poking the configs manually, but the tools do what you want them to do.

The article covers the use-case of making small modifications to the build. react-app-rewired[1] and customize-cra[2] give you access to tweak the webpack build indirectly. While babel-macros[3] in CRA 2.X give you access to the babel transpilation step without having to eject. While it's not exactly what you're referring to, it does get you a little bit closer to the build.
