if you want to bring the .(dot) repeat features on your own plugin/functions, you can check this plugin: https://github.com/tpope/vim-repeat

Another possibility for repeating multiple operations/commands is defining or recording a macro, and replay it. Read :h q for details.

For your example, you can record:

qqJjq

Then @q to replay, also once you have replayed it, you can press @@ to replay previous macro.
