execute(["cmd", "/c", "dmd test.d", "&&", "start test.exe"]);

How can I substitute && ?

You can use executeShell() as mentioned already or do something 
like this:

auto p = execute(["dmd", "test.d"]);
if(p.status == 0) {
    execute(["test.exe"]);
}

Try other variants:

execute(["cmd", "/c", "dmd test.d && start test.exe"]);
execute(["cmd", "/c", "dmd", "test.d", "&&", "start", 
"test.exe"]);
