Yes. You could send a period of "blank IR" after your command to get this 
effect. There is a little known hack in the device:command protocol which 
allows you to send some lowlevel commands without having to bother loading 
the lowlevel device. Let's say your receiver is call rcvr and the input 
switching command is digital_input. Do the following

rcvr:digital_input
rcvr:ir[-750000]

the second command sends a 750ms "off" period out the slink-e IR port, in 
effect tying up the slink-e for 750ms before CDJ sends out its play command.
