Timers can be stopped and started by using a pulse of redstone as the control line. You can't start and stop the timer itself remotely, but you can apply a redstone current via wireless transmitters and receivers. Thus, timers can be indirectly switched on and off from a distance as can most redstone contraptions thanks to wireless.
