No, communication is always initiated by HQ Client. The only way for HQ to request an off-schedule connection is to contact someone at the store and ask them to manually connect HQ Client. You would need to create and approve a 401 worksheet at HQ before having the store connect.

You could also use remote control software like PC Anywhere (that's just an example, not a recommendation) to connect to the store remotely and manually connect HQ Client yourself.
