Or add something like "Run = Full Aug 13 at 18:00" to the schedule definition 
and reload the config?

If this is a one-time event: yes.

If you expect that to happen regularly, I'd use a small script. 
Something I did (but don't have access to now):

echo "sta dir" | bconsole | awk 'script to find all scheduled jobs 
names'  > joblist.txt

or use the list the run command produces

and then

while read jobname ; do
echo "run job=$jobname level=full yes" | bconsole ;
done < joblist.txt

or similar... I always need some trial-and-error for this sort of 
script ;-)

Alternatively, use

for i in `seq 1 maxjob' ; do
echo -e "run\n$i\nyes\n<add changing the level here>" | bconsole ;
done
