Yeah, I think so, I'm planning to code this in the week. It's harder than it sounds because the alarm() timer is still ticking. On POSIX it can be cancelled with alarm(0), but the Windows code spawns a separate thread for timing. It seems that TerminateThread [1] could be used on Windows. It has many caveats, but should be safe for our purposes. Or we could only implement error handling on POSIX and call exit(1) on Windows.
