No.
A "radio alarm clock" is a radio ... which you can use to lull yourself to sleep ... that has a
built-in alarm, which you can set to wake you in the morning, either by turning the radio
back on, or by blasting you awake with an annoying buzz that will ruin your whole day.
A so-called "radio controlled" alarm clock ... sometimes advertised as an "atomic" clock ... is
a clock that actually has a radio receiver built into it, which receives the NIST standard time
signals from Fort Collins, Colorado, and automatically keeps itself set to precisely exactly
the correct time.

If the radio-clock display in a 92 spirit doesn't light up anymore do you have to replace the entire radio?
i have a 95 Spirit and have the same problem. It is getting power to the radio (back lit, and tape player will rewind, but the clock display doesnt work, and the radio doesnt work (which sucks). Sometimes it will turn on when I start my car, but once the car is running, there is 0% chance of the radio coming on, even if I start banging around the radio. THis leads me to believe that is not a loose wire, but something in the ignition? Any input would be appreciated! I to had the same prob with the radio in a 90 Caravan which also carrys the same radio setup as the Dodge Spirit... its a short in the radio that aventually developes... theres nothing wrong with wiring... i took the radio setup out of my 92 Spirit (cause trans went out) and put it into the Caravan and still works fine, so its not a wiring prob... just a prob with the radio itself.
