Did you try? With a remote login on a non-root account of a Fedora
box I see:
$ reboot
reboot: Need to be root
In general "the console owner", and with a remote login you are
surely not in that category, is able to do various things not
permitted to others.

Actually, if the remote user is logged in as the same user as the
"console owner", reboot still works. At least for me on F10.
