Sure you can!
You can execute any controller/action in codeigniter on command line this way:
php index.php controller_name action_name
So you can point a cron job on this particular route and execute anything that don't depends on browser (like sessions/cookies) into your job.

You can use curl in cron jobs to execute or run the codeigniter in cron jobs
