You can use command-execute or execute-kbd-macro instead of
call-interactively. command-execute basically calls execute-kdb-macro
for strings or vectors, or call-interactively on anything else.

I have prepared a patch which allows call-interactively to take a
string or vector argument and treat it as a command macro. I'm not
sure it's the right thing, and I'll have to defer to the judgment of
the emacs maintainers. I will submit the patch, and apply it to the
emacs source tree if they decide they want it.
