why don't you simply install two "master" links: mpiexec
and mpirun are not always synonym like it happens for openmpi.
I would do two symlink:

mpirun.openmpi -> orterun
mpiexec.openmpi -> orterun

And then two separate update-alternatives --install:
update-alternatives \
        --install /usr/bin/mpirun mpirun /usr/bin/mpirun.openmpi 5
update-alternatives \
        --install /usr/bin/mpiexec mpiexec /usr/bin/mpiexec.openmpi 5
