No, it's against user privacy to allow the host to control someone else's camera. No meeting software e.g. Google Meets, Microsoft Teams, Cisco Webex etc. has this functionality.

navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia is a client-side JavaScript API. Even if the host has permission, the user themselves need to trigger the switch without some aspect of remote control, as they are the ones in control of the camera hardware.
