Yes you can. I do this all the time with V9 but V10 can also do this. You may want to look at the user guide http://download.acronis.com/pdf/TrueImage10.0_ug.en.pdf.

You can but note that the tasks will not run at their assigned time if the PC is in standby (S3). If you want to the task to be able to wake the computer for standby and run, then you need to use soething else to initiate the task -- that something can be the windows task scheduler. There are posts describing how to do this, such as here:
