No, not that I have found. I tried to HUP init and sched ( processes one
and zero) without effect.

Timezone is just the value of the TZ environment variable. You can't
change init's value for it without rebooting. But you can stop and restart
other processes with a new value. Of course, processes that are started
directly by init will continue to inherit its value.
