Not currently. Of course, it's quite easy to power down at a certain time,
but power-up is an entirely different matter. However, the functionality
is included in 3.0 to power-up at a specified time (as well as power-down).
In addition, the machine can restart after a power failure (it is cyclic in 
PR2).
