is it possible to turn on a discord.js bot by sending a message?

I have recently created a discord bot and am currently having a ton of fun! I can turn it off by sending a message on my server but I still wonder if there is any way to turn it on by doing the same. All I want is to send something like "bot on" in my server and make the bot turn on.

I think a simpler way to do it would to make one command be sort of a toggle, so that when it is sent the bot starts replying/interacting, and when sent again discontinues. The easiest way to signify the status would be with the Activity Status (the text) or the regular Status (do not disturb compared to online).

The bot must be turned on to receive messages so that's not possible. However, you can start a bot that will start your other bot when a message is received.
