Why not? I've seen npcs that follow you and help you in exp for money, so it's probably possible too. I belive in best scripters here.

It is very possible on the onthink function.
Not sure what npc think about monsters (are they enemies or friends), if none then get spectator should be used.
Other than that I really don't see any problems.
Npc+spells would take about 3hours to script.
There might be few people who has time to do it, I don't.

Describe in first post what mean 'exp' for you.
It run around some area, search for monsters that are not summons and attack them with spells/melee [or fake attack (not 'target' monster), just deal dmg and show dmg animations like player] and if he does last hit he removes loot?
Or remove loot, if he attacked monster few times and someone else killed it?
Monsters should attack him (so he can be used as 'blocker' for players) or ignore him? It would require source edit.

Thanks for reply Gęsior!

I think it's possible. There are many things to test, but it should work. I don't know, if monsters will attack NPC, whwn you set NPC flag 'attackable' to '1' ( https://github.com/otland/forgottenserver/blob/master/src/npc.cpp#L157 ). It may require source edits, rest should be easy.

There are functions:

creature:getPathTo(pos[, minTargetDist = 0[, maxTargetDist = 1[, fullPathSearch = true[, clearSight = true[, maxSearchDist = 0]]]]]) - test if NPC can go to some position

NPC selfMoveTo(x,y,z) - make NPC walk to this position

There can be some problems with stupid 'moveTo' implementation. I reported it here, maybe they will fix in next TFS release:
https://github.com/otland/forgottenserver/issues/1565

--------------------
I read some TFS code and it looks like monsters will attack NPCs when you set flag attackable="1" in NPC .xml file.

It seems like attackable="1" only allows players to attack NPCs. "Wild" monsters will not attack NPCs.

Can you post line in which is code that make monsters not attack NPCs?
I haven't found any code that block it (except check for 'isAttackable()'), but monsters AI code is very long and maybe I missed it.
If you got idea which part of it may block attacks of monster, it would be much easier to make that 'bot npc'.

I'm not entirely such which part of the code makes it so "wild" monsters (monsters placed using /m, for example) don't target NPCs if they have the attackable="1" flag.
I only tested it on my local server.

Can u please explain detailed what you want?
I've just finished my "League of Legends" event, where we have Minion waves that walk to the same direction and the attack enemy/enemy towers/enemy inhibitors. <-- M0nsters are actually NPC's.

Just made the npc fast, used a old script. (Handle monster targetting the same, so the will target npc in the area (You just need to attach the lua in the .xml of the monster, and add npc check & npc name check* then it will target npc. )
*if monster:isNpc() and monster:getName() == "NPC NAME" then

Code: 
<npc name="Red Turret" script="events/redturret.lua" walkinterval="0" attackable="1" floorchange="0" access="0" level="21" maglevel="1">
    <health now="10000" max="10000"/>
    <look typeex="18132"/>
    <defenses armor="0" defense="0"/>
