Answer 1

It is possible. You can schedule a method at some time using Timer and TimerTask.

For example:

Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 10);
calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 30);
calendar.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);

Date alarmTime = calendar.getTime();

Timer _timer = new Timer();
_timer.schedule(foo, alarmTime);
