Copy-webpack-plugin: Can I run a copy task after another copy task?

[Jocs]

By looking at the source code, it is found that the tasks in the current patterns are all running in parallel, but I have a special requirement. I want to run another task after one task is finished. Can this be done with this plugin?

new CopyWebpackPlugin([
      {
        from: path.resolve(__dirname, '../src/muya/themes'), // task 1
        to: path.join(__dirname, '../static/themes'),
        force: true
      },
      {
        from: path.join(__dirname, '../static'), // task 2
        to: path.join(__dirname, '../dist/electron/static'),
        ignore: ['.*']
      }
    ]),

I want to task 2 run after task 1.

@Jocs No, it is very strange if you want to copy one task after another, can you show real use case?

1. Build app into /dist.
2. Copy static files into /dist.
3. Copy /dist folder into /docs to update GitHub Pages.
