Can I store a program on a USB Ethernet/WIFI adapter and auto-run the program when the usb wifi adapter is plugged in? Is it scenario where it may be possible on some but not other USB wifi adapters?

Rees-pek!

In short, no.
However, most of the Huawei 3G/4G devices have a virtual CD-ROM drive built-in.
And yes, you can modify the firmware to run your own code (It's an ISO image).
On a regular WiFi USB adapter, best chance would be to add an USB hub chip and a Arduino Teensy to send commands, yet, would be very big to fit in the original casing.
Or, just plant some regular USB flash drive inside the USB Wifi plastic casing.
Out of curiosity, why would you want this ?
