No. If the amount of work being done in hook_cron is enough to cause PHP to time out, you should probably break it up into smaller chunks and look at the Job Queue module (essentially create a list of things to do and have cron run a few items from that list on each cron run)
Hope that helps!

Hi,
in a custom module I've implemented hook_cron, but after a call to cron.php I get in watchdog a message about cron timeout. Need I to use register_shutdown_function ?
Thank you.
