Is it possible to call a specific protocol dissector for the "data" layer in a Lua script?

I'm not sure it's modbus but I'd like to decode it as modbus to see if it's properly decoded. Is there a way to achieve this ?

"Above" as in "the link layer is 802.15.4, and the protocol running atop 802.15.4 is the data layer"?

I.e., the "Data Payload" of an 802.15.4 Data frame is a Modbus PDU of some sort?

That's because there's no Modbus dissector that registers itself as being usable atop 802.15.4.

So are these Modbus RTU PDUs, beginning with a unit ID byte, followed by a function code byte, followed by the data?
